I just spent the last few hours doing some installs and maintenance on the bike...
Installed the 139dB horn.
Installed the Loobman chain oiler.
Sprayed some carb and choke cleaner in the carbs...didn't seem to make a difference in the slightly rough idle.
Was going to start sync'ing the carbs when the weather started to get ugly and a few drops started coming down.

What are you using to synch the carbs??ylexot said:
I bought a Twin Max, VERY easy to use, and accurate. You're welcome to borrow it if you like.
I just finished my 24000 mile service. Spilled about a 1/2 gallon of gas in the garage switiching out the fuel filter, synched the Throttle Bodies, adjusted the valves, changed ALL the oil, rewired the accessories, new rubber front and back..Next task will be new rear brakes. Other then that, all I have is Oil changes til 36,000 miles. Should get me to August or September.

I have one of the four-guage sync tools. We'll see if I do harm or good with ititsbob said:
I think the big problem most people have with guages is that they just hook them up and start sync'ing. You have to tee them all in to one cylinder first to make sure they all read the same first.
Funny, I searched quite a bit for a sync tool and never came across the twin max. I actually thought about making something similar, but it was just cheaper/easier to buy the guages.

Is it a twin or a four cylinder??ylexot said:I have one of the four-guage sync tools. We'll see if I do harm or good with it

four cylinder, but the way to sync the carbs is to sync the left two to each other, then sync the right two to each other. Then you sync the left two to the right two. So, it could be done with something like the twin max, but it's just a bit easier to do it with a four-guage setup.itsbob said:
