There is often talk about carb syncing on the forum. I synched my carbs last week on my 83 650 using a UniSyn tool that I borrowed from a friend. It was REALLY easy. Really. This should not be a job that anyone is afraid of like I used to be.
I was using a tool like the following: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9ATBDVJ0044339&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-NA-_-NA For $30, I think I'm going to pick one up even though I don't really need one anymore. Its not set of Vacuum gauges like I was expecting, but the old-timer that let me borrow it told me he used to sync old Porches and Lamborghini's with it (and yes, he really did work on that type of car back in the day). When you reassemble the bank of carbs, just do a baseline sync by looking through the carbs and adjusting the butterflies so you can see equal amounts of light under each one. Then get the bike back together and use the sync tool. On the downside, to use this you have to remove the boots on the intake of the carbs. This is more work than just plugging into the vacuum ports on the boots, but it does the trick. - James O'Gorman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
