    Update on bike problem

    So my dad was out here and we tightened the throtle cables on the left side of the gas tank and it somewhat fixed the problem, still there a little. Any other suggestions on how to get it totally fixed? sink the carbs? what? how hard is it to sink the carbs? Chad

    Synching (as in synchronizing) the carbs isn't that hard to do, you just need a gauge. I made one for my VTR out of $5 in parts from home depot, though my variant needs a little work as it's still easy to suck water into the engine with it. A shop manual helps too, though it's not 100% necessary.

    You can pick up a set of carb stix for around $60-70, or I'm sure someone on here has them and can do your bike for you in about 30 min for a 12-pack.

    I thought your bike had FI? I dunno, maybe not...
