ooooooo. Jesus that makes so much more sense. Set #4 with the idle screw... set #1,2,3 accordingly. I'd dropped the idle all the way back trying...
You already got the advice you need, but I just want to echo the sentiment that I would not walk into this project unless I was willing to spend...
So I was able to figure out a way to hit all three synch screws with the bendy screwdriver + wire; however, it was still so far off and my idle...
Little diversion from the synchronization I started earlier this week and was hoping to finish. I back-filled and bled the new rear stainless line...
I got the manufacturer and genre correct. If you were expecting more, well, thats on you. I knew it wasn't a 600 but looked close so I saw it had...
I like this a lot. This sounds like it would be far more accurate than the method I used and the same level of work. The good news is that I...
That's where I started! And you're right--my issue was that it was not fine enough. I can get the extension onto the screws, but the clearance is...
Oh. And I've discovered just how hard it is to get brake fluid into a dry system with new stainless lines and rebuilt calipers. Yikes. Doesn't...
Thanks for the suggestion Shields. I think that could potentially work, but something with a 1/4" socket receiver on the end would allow more...
Are you hearing any popping like it wants to fire, or nothing at all? Is this off an auxiliary tank or off the fuel tank? If auxiliary tank, make...
Cheaper than a skin graft? ~$70 for the Motion Pro... That seems like quite a bit for a tool that I've never had any use for prior. I'm gonna...
Are there any tricks or essential tools to accessing the synchronization screws buried on the underside of the carburetor? I purchased this...
Auxiliary tank works just fine to get it going. You and I are at the same spot, but it does bring up a question I never thought to ask... Should...
I was given some really good advice on this recently here by Captain 80s and a few others. I'd been having fits trying to seat my VF500F carbs...
Will do. The order of sync is in the manual, so I'll just follow that exactly. Will grab some 40 pilots if it requires more than 2.75 turns out...
Alright, that's what I was thinking. My understanding per the manual is that you are not balancing them in pairs like an inline-4; but rather,...
Found some interesting behavior after playing with the bike for much of Sunday. The warm bike would idle all the way up to 3,700RPM with the idle...
They sure do. I'm sure the sync is all off, and I'm probably too lean on the A/F screws. *Edit--lmao, just realized why it might be running...
I got it fired! It certainly isn't right yet--got a hanging throttle which will certainly take a lot of putzing around with to eliminate... but at...
I really like that idea to slit the exhaust and add a clamp. I was playing around with it again last night, and even once I fasten the exhaust to...
