Hello everyone.
Does anyone know of a source of CVK Carb Jets besides New Bonneville?
I've e-mailed and called several times about placing a order and still haven't recieved any reponses from them.
I'm on the hunt for a set of 155 main jets for my 04 America and any help would be apprecited.
Let me know.
Thanks.
John

HD, Honda, Yamaha, and others used those carbs so most of those dealers either have or can order them. Most people seem to have the best luck with Honda. If you have a reasonable Triumph dealer you can get them there for a reasonable price too.

That is strange, as I emailed an order through about a week ago and they virtually shipped it straight away.

Strange... anytime I've dealt with Brent he's been all over it... great service, timely delivery, tons of thank-yous, appreciation both ways! A favourite vendor o' mine for sure!!

My experience with Brent was more like the first post but far worse.

I checked British Customs but they didn't have larger jets and the local HD and Honda shops needed a Harley or a Honda number.I even took the carbs in with me.I guess I will try the classifieds listing next. Thanks everyone for the input.

There is a new and old CV that use different jets, just take a jet in with you and see if they can match it up. Sounds like those places just didn't want to help you. The HD place near me brought out a few drawers full and we both went through them.
