Forum approved needle and seat for TK carbs? was created by chopper1963
I have a leaky TK22 on one of my 1981 GPz550s.
It looks like Kawasaki is OOS on the original needle and seat (16030-1009). The last time I checked these out the K&L kits were china garbage. Which "kit" parts are the best to get in 2024?
TIA

Japanese Keyster kits are the ones to go for.

Thank you. Is there a vendor in the USA?

These are for the TK22 carbs. I believe these were used for the A series bikes, up to 1983. Obviously, different from the CV carb TK carbs.

Quite possibly, that fitment information is an overview regarding worldwide fitment. Yes, in the USA market, TK CV carbs were adopted for the GPz 550 starting in 1982, but maybe not for other parts of the world. Regardless, it's easy enough to figure out what your bike needs.
