Rebuilding the engine on my dt, delved into my big box of spares and the barrel I had had different sized reeds in it to the one on the bike. And the inlet rubbers are only compatible with the larger reeds as they have a section of rubber that pretrudes into the reed block. The block is taller, wider, and deeper. The opening. Between the carb and reeds is also a different size, hence why the rubbers are not compatible.

Which is standard? Could it be from a different year or a 125? And if the ones im using are not standard, in guessing ill need a bigger jet?

Thats what I have I think. But that will only work with the larger set of reeds. What on earth is the smaller reed block doing attached to a 175 barrell is what I want to know!!
