    Hi Guys

    I have a two part question:

    1. I'm trying to source some needles for the Mikuni TMX 38 carb on my 2012 WR144. But I'm having problems finding a supplier:

    - the guy at Carb Parts Warehouse says they are a Husky proprietary needle so they don't sell them

    - I spoke to Sudco and they said Mikuni USA don't import needles for this carb(!)

    So, can anybody recommend somwehere that supplies needles for this carb please? Is it necessary to speak to a Husky dealer or something?:excuseme:

    2. Secondly, the bike came with a needle marked 6DEY-15-74. I live in the Caribbean where it's stinking hot and the bike's running rich, so I'm looking for a leaner needle. Can anyone recommend one?

    The bike did come with a spare needle but it's identical to the one already fitted:banghead:

    Thanks in advance for any responses.

    Thanks for the response. Found it, it looks like needles for a 2004 Suzuki RM125 can be used. Powersports Plus seem to stock them, I'm off to order a few to see if I can get her running sweet!
