    I know other bikes use them. Where are they? What are the specs? Valve seats would be nice too. I have done serious due diligence and found nothing yet. Carb rebuild kits DONT exist for 90-93. Show me the way gents. Any help is much appreciated.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I have checked all of the above. I just need the needles and was trying to avoid biting the OEM bullet. There are many bikes that use the same needle and have for decades. And many websites sell alot of diff needles. What F*#kin needle is it? Didnt Hitatchi make them for 3rd gens? I wonder if it is poss to find a website/database that has specs on hitachi needles(for Keihin carbs) thru the years....? Obsessed I am to uncover the mystery. No wait, Im obsessed about my Viff ;)
