Isn't Northhampton east of Oklahoma? I am not sure about where anything is on your island but these folks have the jets you need and are good people:

just had the carbs off and it has 110 mains and 15 piolts
cleaned them all trough and synced them starts and revs fine until you use full throttle then it pops and misses and wont rev out, falls flat at about 7500rpm

Hi Judgie
You could try the following link
www.z-power.co.uk
They mainly do parts for Z1's & Z900's but they are pretty helpful if you give them a call.

Nice to see someone on the site from Northampton. For all you US guys it is south of of Birmingham and that aint Alabama either.
Just got tickets for Brighton & Hove Abion vs Northampton Town (my old home town) on Jan 3rd 2009 (SOCCER):lol: .

Needs bigger main jets. My guess would be at least two sizes larger.
