If your dealer can't get you a needle for a pwk, fire your dealer.

I know right phragle!its world of powersports in town there and they even list it on the site I call the guys says yea it'll be here Wednesday.Wednesday rolls around and they call me to say they don't have it and can't get it.I'm like wtf not he said it was discontinued.I thought these carbs were standard run of the mill performance carbs?why then is it so hard to find a common part?

This would just be a case of an OEM not stocking an OEM needle for an older bike anymore. Plenty of aftermarket stuff still available, as Budget has already discovered.
