When my mechanic overhauled my carbs this last time he replaced two of the needle jets.  Showed on the invoice they were $12.50 apiece, so someone must carry them.  He mentioned he had to go "pick them up," so they must be available somewhere in town at one of the local Honda places.

Oh, sorry I misunderstood what you were asking for.  Local shop shows a price of $22.58, so not much cheaper  :-\

sounds like it might be better to pick up carbs in good shape.

What exactly are you needing?  The hinge pins for the floats?

These?
