you can do it with a 1x6, clear tubing, staples and water for about $10, just staple the tubing to the board in a u shape, fill with a few inches of water with the open ends straight up, and the other ends connected to the carbs, then adjust to get all the water levels the same

transmission fluid is more visible and safer in case it gets sucked in, but yeah that's the general idea

also it's a waste of time if everyting else is not dialed in 100 percent, unless they are terribly out of sync.

Do you need to adjust your valves? Got an exhaust leak?

10/4/2006 1:26:58 PM

exhaust leak not sure. im buyin a full system vance and hines for it. valves.. it has 10k i guess yes? who wants to adjust those igor? i pay you to

sorry, im done working on bikes for money. time to move on with my career.

Definitely just make one. Tranny fluid will work fine.
I doubt your valves need adjustment at 10k, I think most companies recommend checking them every 25k or so.

just go by a plastic mitty vac. you can use the vacuum gauge on that, plus the vacuum pump function of it is awesome. i think they are like 30 bucks.

You niggers just don't know how to sync carbs.

In a pinch, you can take a piece of 5/32" vacuum tubing and position it in the intake of the carb. Listen to the hissing sound in each of the carbs while the bike's running. Get'em to sound the same, and you're done syncing your carbs. I've done it this way with good results.

Of course, sync gauges are the best way, but fuck all that noise if it involves spending money you don't have (or that would be better spent on whores, food, or beer).
