    Is there anybody between Pittsburgh,Pa. and Cleveland,Oh. interested in synching my 650 carbs?I'm backed up at my shop and really don't want to buy the tools to do it and maybe never use them again.The bike is pretty clean,so it's not a filthy mess to work on.All new intakes and related parts installed already,carbs have been cleaned.

    The tank is just on there for a pic for a member on here.

    As long as your valves are in spec (already done them?) all you need is a manometer/gauge & YICS tool, not expensive really and if you're planning to keep the bike any length of time & have it run as well as it can (or indeed tune any other bike with more than one carb) you certainly will get your money's worth from the tools.

    That said, if money's really an issue (guessing a set of the Ebay blue gauges would be about $90 tops for 4 dial/$45 for 2 dial & YICS tool about $15) then you could make your own for about $10-15 all in. I'll try to find the links to the how-to's if you want to find out about making them (Would recommend the ebay dials though I love 'em!)

    You could have had them done with the time it took you to make the post and $5 for a clear tube and yardstick manometer or the two bottle tool.
