Z650 main jet size check please

Can anyone confirm the size of the main jet in the Mikuni slide carb
range, not the one with the accelerator pump.

I have a Haynes but I like to double check these things.

Must be a 1978ish version.

Thanks

Some people are like slinkys....
no real use but it makes you smile when they fall down stairs!

 

I've got a pukka Kawasaki factory manual. According to that, the main
jet is a 102.5R. Needle jet is 0-8, pilot jet 15, air screw two turns
out plus or minus a quarter.

TY , yer that helps.

they are fitted with 125 main at the moment*, the Haynes book of lies
says Main 100 Needle 0.8 and pilot 16. Slightly different.

drill and borked it up,

In the absence of hard info, I've just used the centre position as a
starting point and done plug chops if needed.

 

"The 4 is the groove number for the clip"

Doh. Got the same manual, same page, and I missed it.
