I have VM24 carburetors from a 650 engine used on my 750cc engine.
I need some help to find correct float needle, I want to purchase new one...

These is the only part when it comes to wear and tear for keeping correct float height?

How can I find part number ?

Thank you, but I`m not looking for the pin, but the needle with needle (rubber/spring/)

Please see attached photo, these picture is not picture of the needle I has, but they looks to be almost identical,
but the previous owner can have installed wrong needle so I hope somebody can help me with correct one to my carb?

These part I`m looking for, the picture is not taken of my needle, but a random pi cure I found on internet, but it looks to be identical.

VM 24's use this part number 16030-1001 this is for both the needle and seat which come as a set. The picture you have posted shows a wire piece which is not present on mikuni vm24's float valves

What carbs are they from Michael? I've never seen float valves with that wire assembly on them. OP has mikuni so wrong part fitted?

Warren3200gt is correct. Kawasaki never sold the VM24 float needle as a separate item and there was no rubber tip. It comes as part of the float valve assembly (needle and seat). The part number for the VM24 float valve assembly is 16030-1001. The needle does not look like the one in your picture because it does not have the wire you show. See images below. Ed

These float needles are for the 1980 and later carbs like gordon need.
