Needle question
One taper looks like dynojet and the other taper looks like factory pro. However, both have 5 clip positions. Any input? I always seem to get the weird setups. I have needles in my bike right now that look like the factory pro taper but have 6 clip positions. Just wondering which is which really. Not that it really matters to me. I'll be selling both sets.

TK,
Either have part numbers / cods on them as one is lean at the bottom end and the other is more of agradual curve thro the range.

Re: Needle question
The right hand one is a factory pro needle.
The left one is a stock needle believe it or not. I do believe it came either some non-US bikes or the Vance and Hines Edition bikes. It is a Dynojet with 5 clips.

Re: Needle question
That right one is a stock one of a non US fzr600. The left one is an early designed dyno jet. Is the left one something soft like aluminium?
This is a US fzr600 needle and a no US fzr600 needle.

Re: Needle question
I'm still going with the right one being a Factory Pro one. It tapers off quicker than the one you show at the bottom right.

Re: Needle question
yea i think your right about the on the right being a factorypro, the taper goes alot longer plus it's not chamfered.
