Does Ricks needle set need 2 0.5 washers or 1? I have 2 on the standard needles for the fueling.

Cheers

1 I believe, that's what I am running anyway.

Cheers fella. Did you notice much improvement after installing them?

Not a huge amount as I did several other mods at the same time so it's hard to say what effect they made, but the originals were worn so needed replacing anyway. Certainly not found any problem with them, but the bike does need some dyno time to get it just so.

Happy I got them but will be interested to hear if they make much of a difference for you.

Those needles are a straight drop in replacement for the originals so use the standard 0.5mm stainless washer but no extras...

Appreciate that Rick. Cheers.

The RVF kit needles have a circlip and 3 grooves for height adjustment (the VFR ones just have a plain flange built into the needle like the stockers) - the grooves are 1mm apart so the kit just has 4 x 0.5mm spacers to give you an optional height increment of `half a groove` for fine tuning if required.
