    78 GS 1000 carb sync

    I was wondering if anyone could tell me what screws need to be adjusted on these bikes when doing carb sync?
    A video or some pictures would be great and thanks for any advice.

    When in doubt look at the factory service manual.

      Thanks I do have the manual but wasn't sure if I was reading it correctly.
      So I can run the bike with top covers of carbs removed while I adjust with sync tool?
      This is my first time and just wanted to have as much info before starting the sync.

        That's how it works
        The sync tool only shows you where the slides are, screwdriver and wrench to adjust
