Where to buy jets and such
« on: January 02, 2009, 06:04:51 PM »
2 questions.
Are the main jets the same in the 78k and 78f? I found jets that are listed to fit the K but the f is not listed. Im guessing they just forgot about them.

1.08 each jet, so 4.32 a set, before shipping.
Gotta luv Z1.

I use Jets-R-Us because the prices are right and they are relatively close to me so shipping isn't too bad.  Actually 2 days by regular mail ;D

Now this is kewl thread.  We need to get this on the links thread in the FAQ.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

 These guys have 350 and 550 sizes and are cheap and fast. They probably have 750 jets too. Ive used them and theyre fast.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

a little off topic but does any body know the difference in these jets. On is from a PD carb for a 750F the other is a PD carb off i belive a 77. Why are the not interchangeable? I belive the 750 part jet series is 99101-393 but what is the number for the 550?
