Mystery needles

Tue Feb 02, 2010 1:44 am » Post: #1 » Download Post

I recently acquired a number of HRC jet kit parts for my MC21. While I now have multiple sets of A, B & C needles, I also have a couple of sets of needles that I cannot find any info on. They are marked as follows:

J2GD
J06C
JHMU (The J is really faint)

Can anyone shed some light on what application these are for?

Thanks

OK then, nobody has any ideas.......

I thought they might have been for avgas, or F3 carb bits. I was going to give them away or swap them if I knew what they were to be used for and someone had a need for them.

If they're not NSR, I guess I'll bin them.

Just pulled a couple out of my SP - they say J2GC and have adjustable clip positions. Any ideas?

J2G's are 1990 F-III, and rather rich!

I don't have earlier info to hand on this PC, only in books back home, but all the needles before the J2BA's (i.e. 1992~) are generally far too rich for a street bike.

Needle numbering

Thu Apr 15, 2010 2:08 am » Post: #11 » Download Post

Andy,

So if the needles are F3, what is the numbering convention used ie what does the alpha-numeric combination mean?

I'd like to have a general understanding of this system.

Regards

Scott

All the HRC stuff reads rich to lean... xxxA is a thin (richer) needle, xxxZ is a thick (leaner) needle.

Buy some HRC books on Yahoo! Japan. You'll learn an awful lot from them if you study them carefully. There's nothing like having those special books for reference! Wink

Yes, no problem at all using any needle (including stock ones, and bear in mind there are a number of profiles to play with if you collect MC16, MC18 I & II, and MC21 needles!Wink) in HRC carbs.
