Fuel screw search

So cycle gear and flex jet both have finger adjustable fuel screw replacements that fit an FCR carb on a dirt bike.

Has anyone found one that fits the hawk? I called those 2 and they dont think it crosses over.

Smokinnnn, I'm in the middle of looking for this right now. I'm not having much success, since no one really responds back to me.
Here are the specs we are looking for.

1- 15mm from base of thread, to tip of needle
2- 0.50mm thread pitch
3- M6 thread

If you work with that, maybe we can find something. I may have found something at J & P cycles that works for the Kawasaki, but still waiting for an answer.

My mechanic buddy says none of the ones I linked to him would fit. I just realized, you cant even buy them from ronayers right? Since we are not supposed to tamper?

Its just a pain to remove the ones I have for him to braze but it may come to that depending on how bad I want this done.

That'd be sweet to have an actual **** on the end of the screw. I just cut a groove in it so that I can use a flat blade screw driver to adjust it.

SCREW SET
Mfg. Part Number: 16028-MY5-890
$12.35 from Ronayers, and you can get um from SUDCO as well.

No aftermarket part i know of, would need to be a custom set up

So for $25ish + shipping I guess its that vs removing them and taking em to be brazed, then re-installing.

but still waiting for an answer.
I haven't had another reply back from them after enquiring about the length from the base of the thread. Maybe I should not have mentioned that I did not intend on using it on a Harley I did ask if it would fit Keihin series 21 carbs.

What is number 6: is it the fuel screw?
Yes that's we we have in the UK. It's not capped off like yours over there. It's just a recessed screw with the needle on one end. There's also a spring, washer and rubber O ring attached over the thread. But because it's recessed we still have access problems with getting a right angled screwdriver in there.
