Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

Re: GT550 Carb Kit
I would only use OEM parts. The is no good kit. The difficult items will be needle jet and jet needle. But change only if you need to.
You have to look into needle jet the first few mm to see if that precise metering area is OK. Mainly the issue is it is corroded and pitted in there and if even a little bike will run poor on that circuit. I think on the M its a 172 series? I think that is obsolete, but be sure . If you get this far and they are rough reply back for options.
