Throttle needle
An Amal carburetor throttle needle that meters fuel as the throttle opens, listed under 1969 in the shop's records.
This is a throttle needle for an Amal carburetor, listed in the carburetor and air cleaner section of the parts book. The needle rides inside the carb's needle jet and moves with the throttle slide, controlling how much fuel gets pulled into the airstream as you open the throttle past the pilot circuit.

Our catalog record only shows this part turning up once, tied to the 1969 model year, so we don't have much more to go on beyond that single listing. If you're chasing a jetting or carburetion issue, this is the kind of part where getting the exact number right matters, so it's worth double-checking against what's stamped on your slide or what your parts book calls for.
Give the shop a call if you want to confirm this is the right needle before you order - with carb internals like this, one wrong digit in the number can mean a needle that's tapered all wrong for your application.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
