9842,
Here are the details on the carbs. This is an earlier model, but construction is the same as yours.
13 BMW 1973 R75/5 Rebuild & Refinish Bing Type 64/32 Carburetors & Karcoma Petcocks
Jet sizes vary with the bike. I can send you what you need, but usually the jets are stamped with the correct number on them. And, you can order them from any BMW dealer or contact Bing Agency for them.
Hope this helps.
Best.
Brook Reams.

Hi
Thanks for info. After looking at it I thought it was the idol jet. Yesterday was such a nice day in Boston that I decided to take it to Duncan at Ducans Beemers. Bike runs fine, just stalls when stopped. I keep the throttle cracked a little and it stays running. He cleaned jets and adjusted it but needs a full tuneup and carb cleaning. So will have to drop it off and have him give it a full service.
Thanks
Brian
