Just buy the #128 and #132 mains. You've got a spare $10 right?
If the #132 is already in there, return the jets you've just purchased.

I haven't rounded up all my jets to start my project yet because I'm waiting for my air filter to come in so I'm taking my good ole time...but the shop didn't have a 128, they had a 127.5 , .... weird.

Never heard of that size for the Keihen CVK34, have them double check that the #127.5 is for the correct application.

oh, and if you go to the kawasaki website they have parts diagrams and for the carbs on the 06 at least it says they have a 118 main and they give the part number, and they also give the part number for the 116 main

They really didn't check anything, they just said "what carb do you have?" I said a keihen and added that it wasn't the long hex, it was the short flat head screw type. Thats what they came out with. When we looked in the parts unlimited book I didn't see any other type listed. And if you go to the keihen website they don't even have any .5 sizes listed.....so I don't know what the hells up.

At the end of they day though, would it really even matter? I mean, as long as the holes the right size, it sucks the correct amount of gas through it should be all good shouldn't it?

Again. . . my FACTORY manual indicates that ONLY the California Emissions model has the #118 main jet in it! Get it? I'm trying to gather all the CORRECT parts together so that I can get this job done all at once (Header, silencer, jets, air filter) and in this town getting ANY parts from my know-nothing Kawasaki dealer is like pulling teeth (7-10 business days to get a part. . . God help you if they've incorrectly ordered that part!
Thanks WestOz,

So all you did was pull out the snorkel, tossed in a 124, and you rocked out?
