    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Diy synch tool

Hey, whats your thoughts on this? Zirc grease fittings come in m5 thread and they have a fairly small hole to act as a restrictor. The fitting would screw into the carb boot and you slip the synch tool hose over the other end...
 
I just use 1/8" copper tube and thread it. Works fine. You don't really need a restrictor if you use heavy weight oil in your tool.
 
I ended up using a 5mm hex bolt that i drilled out. Well i hooked everything up to start synch, and with the carb tops off (vm26s) the throttle kills the bike.
 
Nice Ed! I like the idea with the extensions. Well I checked and adjusted the carbs reset it all to factory, then a tad rich. Seems to have done the trick, was able to balance the carbs and my synch tool worked pretty well.. I used 10w-40 oil and still had some flutter in the fluid...

You have a picture and/or dimensions on your sync tool?

Just curious about it, as most home-brew gauges are using lighter-weight fluids, and therefore have to be much longer than is convenient.
