I got my jets from JP Cycles.  I could not find a "kit" with the right sizes.  The standard kits just bump you up a couple sizes, but the Grampsize mod is more significant than that. I used the stock needle.

whatever needle comes in the kit is the one that the grampsizing instructions call for. I used that, the jets they called for, the K&N filter, the modified airbox, removed the CA nonsense, and have a reduced backpressure exhaust and it all works together to make a much easier to ride and more enjoyable bike.

If I order the dynojet kit for the 800 Vulcan will I get the correct needle? They don't list what needle is in the kit, just says it is for the stock engine.

I bought my jets from jetsrus.com and the dynojet kit for 800 Drifter off of eBay.

I used a AFAM front sprocket bought through the local dealer 18T then for the rear I went with a JT sprocket 38T both in steel

Where do you get the jets for grampsizing? The article mentions OEM and Dynojet but I can't find the size jet and needle called for listed anywhere. Is the dealer the source for parts or where? also where to get progressive front springs and sprokets?
