I went down to my local KTM dealer , they had one on the shelf. It comes as a spare in their kits. Half the price Yamaha were asking. Really works too :-)
Sorry, I don't have a part # though :-/

Any news on needle and set up.

Quick update. As a whole loads better! It is now clean right from idle all the way up to full chat. Much more compliant on the technical sections which was my main priority.
My only concern was during a meeting last week, after being flat out like on a long stretch or in crossing some of the nightmare bogs it became a little bit weak. Not to the point of 'pinking' badly just a bit flat on power. But sharpness soon came back. So what in the carburation can cause this. I'm thinking float level or main jet? I'm running a 175 main jet and thinking about trying a 178 or even a 180...
But as I say, a vast improvement

Slightly lean somewhere if its starting to fall flat when worked hard. Make one change at a time, but most likely it'll be on clip position. No harm in jumping up a size or two on the main though, and it will be noticable from 1/2 throttle onward.
