Just got carb bowl screws and intake boot clamp screws from KM Carburetor on eBay.
Genuine JIS with the dot on them. Packaging is top of the line and the cool logo sticker will have to go someplace special where people know what the JIS screw heads look like and have the right screwdriver to use with them.

Ready to go into my carbs a few more times as jetting gets sorted out - yet again.

Would have been good to have a JIS screwdriver 40 years ago, (says the old fart).

The best link I found was their website:
http://www.kmcarburetor.com/
and click on their "eBay" button, on top of the left column.

Was hoping to find RD400 front brake reservoir screws there, but no. They sell JIS driver bits, which look handy.

Pick up one of these Motion Pro T-handles. https://www.motionpro.com/product/08-0557
Extremely useful! Additional bits are available as well.

^^^ That looks better, since I was thinking of putting it on a 20V power driver and wondering if something would get ruined.

a JIS bit (or any driver bit) does not belong on a power driver. You'll be replacing a lot of stripped hardware.
Do it by hand!
