Needle washers 1 Year, 10 Months ago  
I want to get a few spares for my Dynojet needle (lost all the spares over time), but can't find any place that sells washers small/thin enough to match the ones that come with the needle. Thinking of going from 4th clip to 3.5.

At one point, someone (I think it was Doc) posted that the right size washers were available at Radio Shack, of all places. Does anyone know the proper size washer I'm looking for?

Thanks in advance,

RK

They used to sell a package of small assorted washers which had a size that fit our needle.

Try an HD dealer and ask them for Mikuni parts.
