Information is in the FAQ in the Carb section;

With age the rubber O rings in the carbs can deteriorate leading to a number of issues with the bike running roughly especially at lower revs / speeds. Given the age of the OEM O rings it is recommended to replace these using Nitrile (Buna-N) or VitonĀ® (FKM) O-Rings, Fluoroelastomer Seal type FKM 75 in the following sizes;
- Float needle valve: 7.5mm ID x 1.5mm cross section x 10.5mm OD
- Main Jet : 5.5mm ID x 1.5mm cross section x 8.5mm OD
- Idle air screw: 3.0mm ID x 1.0mm cross section x 5.0mm OD
- Under Diaphragm cap 2.5mm ID x 1.5mm cross section x 5.5mm OD
- Idle air screw O-ring is a proprietary size of 2.70 I.D. x 1.13mm
