Bandit 400 carby parts
G'day from down under,
I have a 1997 GSF 400 aka Bandit, GK7AA VC VVT engine.
When sat on the bike, looking forward, the spark plug in right hand cylinder is failing every few weeks and when removed is black and wet. I've had a couple of mechanics suggest either the float valve seal/seat is dirty and not sealing therefore allowing too much fuel through, or the needle jet and jet needle/tube is worn also allowing fuel to leak into the cyclinder.
I'm looking for these carby parts, mainly the jet needle and needle jet (emulsion tubes) but am having trouble finding the exact parts I need. It's the standard bike with Mikuni carby's.
If anyone can provide any information on where I can get these parts, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading, and hope to hear from someone soon.

Don't have the carb parts you're looking for but bear me in mind if you ever need anything I may have... http://www.mark2bikes.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
If Robinsons don't have what you're looking for as Mike has suggested try these people in the States.. http://alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Thay're a handy reference tool too.
