Here's the part number and description from my receipt:

1 Main Jet #85 4 PK P/N KN10222185

Price - $2.99 plus tax

That's a Mikuni part number. Elite's use a Mikuni carb?

It could be the wrong one - I haven't compared it to the original yet.

I just picked up a jet today from my local honda dealer and they said the biggest they could order was a 78 and it cost me 8 bucks+tax.

The 68 (Elite S) and 78 (Elite SR) are all that show up in the parts catalog for the SA50/SA50P. They have to go beyond the original parts lookup and find a higher jet that is compatible with the carb.

I'll post whether the 85 I picked up works or not in a week or so after I've had a chance to pull the carb.

Buy a metric drill bit set and an extra stock jet, a 100 main is 1 millimeter, a50 main is .5 mill, so on and so forth.

Nice. I have a handful of basically useless #65 jets. I think I'll drill one of em out to 70 for grins.
