wesw Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 first off im going to make a video on how to do it in a week or two but first off. i think your using stock carbs if i remember correctly, you put on that adapter on the thinger. remove your air box or pods. fire the bike up. let it idle put the tool over the back of the carb, get a reading on both carbs. say 3 then 5 on the other you adjust your idle screws to where they they read the same. once you have the same reading and say your bike is running high. remember or mark the screw and turn them the same amt to bring the idle down and keep in sync. but double check after you get them to the wanted idle speed --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- to adjust mid throttle sync its hard to do with stock cable but get a person or something to wedge to keep the same rpms and its a bitch hard to find someone to keep a steady hand. thats why i love my terry cable just adjust the cable out and it raises the slides up. when you get a decent rpm thats not making it screaming and steady get some readings. then adjust the tops of your carbs to get the same readings. then give your cable a bit of slack and should be good to go. if you got them damn close you will be able to hear the pipes tinging at the same time. or if one is a bit quicker you know you might need to adjust them a bit more. hope this helps again ill make a video soon but got shit going on.

jbooker82 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Just as long as you get a good seal so the carb is pulling all the air through the gauge. For doing the mid range sync like wes said you need to keep the thumb throttle held exactly the same. Take the cover off of the thumb throttle and find a small 1/4 in drive socket to wedge between the throttle housing and lever where the cable hooks up to. That way you a good consistant reading.
