Thanks for the info flapjack...I was told that the carbs are 38s, needle seat is 1.5. I just wanted to be sure because the manual says 38 - 40 on the size of the carb, but have come to find that the rebuild kits fit 38 - 44 size. I am still learing. But thanks again.
 
you don't need to replace the jets, they do not wear, just might gum up a little -not necessarily visible- take out and spray with choke cleaner. needle/ seats and the diaphragm are just about the only items that wear.

Really? I thought stock SXR carbs are 40mm I bodies? I have a set of SXR carbs and a stock set of SJ carbs on my bench, pretty sure the SXR carbs are larger. I will have to measure tonight.

Hmmm....you got me thinking too. Manual sates they are mikuni bn40-38. I measured mine at the smallest point and got just over 38mm

I stuck my calipers in the bottom and you can get right to the bore at the butterfly. I read 39.99mm. The SJ carbs next to them were noticeably smaller at 38mm. Now, I should say, these are off my 05 that was built by Blowsion and I don't have a full build sheet for it, but I do believe the carbs to be untouched stockers. They sure look completely stock.
