What sizes are you looking for? I work for an Industrial supplier in Galway and we are agents for Guhring drill bits.

One word for ya: DON'T....
You can never control that the jets will be equal in size (if you run multiple carbs) and the flow will never even get close to what a real jet does, I have been dealing with motorcycles my whole life (it feels like) and for a while I did just that, drilling jets and I was never 100% happy with how they ran so I started to buy the jet sizes I needed instead and what a difference!!! Jets are quite cheap and easy to find so go out an by a bag full.....

DP says: Do it right....... I'd have to agree, buy different jet sizes cos as well as accuracy problems the drill bits cost a fortune

Go to a gas components wholesaler..i have one in my neibourhood,they supply gas fittings to plumbers ,LPG installers etc etc and ask to buy a set of.....JET DRILLS.* They only come in sets and range in size from microscopic to very small, they won't fit in a drill,so they have a knob you twist by hand. Jets being brass ( normally) are easy to enlarge,if you go too big on a rare part,just solder up the jet and redrill it. Also,don't go enlarging jets without first getting your hands on a CO2 tester..(i bought one second hand for $20 AUD ) This will give a rough idea hopw much fuel you are either wasting or using to produce more power.. * seriously expensive though...

Many years ago I changed my driving style to cope with rising fuel prices; I have now reached the stage where I am contemplating keeping my eyes shut in order to lower wind resistance.
