Where should I buy a jet kit? Which kit should I buy? And are there any additional parts required for a reject such as a carburetor rebuild kit?

I am a pretty aggressive rider, however I only do road riding. Does this play in affect when choosing a kit?

Thanks

Carb rebuild is needed only if you have leaks. The biggie is the float bowl, the rest are individual O rings. They all can be bought by measurement, the float gasket is a sizuki item, costs ~9 or so from dealer - and oddly after having cracked open the first GS carb in 1995, and having done over 300 carbs on gstwin since then, just a week ago I bought my first pair of float gaskets for someone on this site ... I can keep old and 1/2 dead float gaskets alive pretty good with this permatex gasket sealant I got.

Anyway, I sell mikuni jets specific for your setup - as in I dont sell random stuff with you worrying WTF you need to put in it. You jet pack has only the jets for your setup as you tell me and I tell you what you need and I pack that same thing. $25 gets you a kit shipped in US.
No worries, if you change your setup in future all you'd need is a $8 set of mains. Cos all setup on GS'es use the same pilots washers etc, just mains change. Anyway ... so Yea I sell jets, and I can suggest what you need to get if your local dealer is good and responsive to you. If they dont and want to push the DJ or dont even care to get off their butt and search their catalogs, well that's why I started selling these. I would give people even part numbers before the catalogs scrambled their numbers and people would still get wrong parts, then I'd have 10X the trouble figuring out why its doing what its doing.
Post your year and your setup, and you'd probably find out what you need in the wiki.
Cool.

So you sell pretty much everything I would need to reject my bike? If so what else would I need and the cost? Also PM me your PayPal.

The dealers around me don't seem to carry GS parts.

I have an '09 Blue/White 500F

Thanks again,

Buddha, could I get one of your kits for an '07 US model GS500F with stock pipes? PM me your PayPal info and I'll send you the payment and PM you my shipping info.

You have to hang around here for quite a while to understand The Buddha.  
But he said it in his post above. You send him a PM, tell him what year your bike is and whether you have aftermarket intake/exhaust. He tells you how to pay him $25. His kit has everything you need, except time and tools.

Mine? Also curious if the o-rings on the float needle seats where gone?

Anyways, Buddah is the go to guy for all things, especially jetting....
