Thanks a lot Nick. Don't worry about staying online today, I'll have to find
the fittings first before I can continue my sync test. Looks like today will
be a ridding day :-))
I cleaned the throttle bodies yesterday with carb cleaner and washed/oiled
my individual K&N filters. Also, per your recommendation I screwed in all
the way and then back out 2 turns the air screws. The bike seems to be
running better but SEEMS is the magic word here. Stay tuned after today's
ride.
