Needle and Seats was created by OutsiderZX12R
What would be the best option for picking up a needle and seat set for my 1981 KZ550C Ltd's TK carbs? Kawasaki is almost $40 for one set and I am trying to beat that.

Thanks in advance.

I've actually had pretty good luck just cleaning mine up. A little bit of Mothers mag polish on the end of a cue tip, put it into the seat and spin it around until the seat gets nice and shiny. I can't guarantee it will work for you but it sure won't cost you much to try it.
