I finally gave up on sea foam Lucas injector cleaner and 2 or 3 others to clean carbs.
I have taken carbs out and starting to clean and getting ready to order parts needed.
I have seen many on this site recommend the float valves at amazon BUT when I follow the link they post.
amazon tells me there not right for my Valkryie. Even Bons post this link for
K&L Supply K&L Float Needle for 93-95 Honda CBR900RR .

Will they work for my bike? and are they any good.

Thanks

Why not order a complete kit from All Balls, p/n 26-1629. Has all the gaskets, bowl screws, all new jets, new float valves, all o-rings, new idle mixture screws...everything needed for overhaul except your time and solvent. I just ordered off Ebay for $96 plus tax, came to $101 in Wisconsin. It's the same kits used by Attic Rat on his rebuild projects. That p/n will cover all six carbs in one kit.  :cooldude:

All I can tell you is those are the ones I used when I redid the carb bank on a standard I used to own and they worked fine.
