Who in GA.....?

[GAWildKat]

.....Has a carbtune and colortune and can give us a hand with Mike's new 1st gen? If you live outside GA and wanna stop by I'll feed and house you too! Right now I can't travel with doc visits looming and Mike needs someone who has the time and ability to help him diagnose some problems with the bike. I'd appreciate the assistance, it would be a huge help with prepping for Vogel this year.

We are going to Warner Robbins sometime in July. If you have not found someone by then I can do the carbtune. Been thinking about getting a color tune also.

if i had a carb tune and color tune i would come up and do it but i dont have one and need to get both so i can do mine

[Barrycuda]

Can someone inform me on what's a color tune?? And how often should this be performed and why?

[pmelah]

color tune lets you see what kind of flame you have in the cylinder you pull the plugs put this in place then put plugs back in it help to fine tune your fuel air mixture to timing if you have an orange flame you can adjust until you get a nice blue flame that will help the efficiency of the motor fuel burn and should be done when syncing the carbs i hope i explained this right i have the concept down but hard for me to explain its also hard to do on the 1st and 2nd gens without a mirror and some sort of adapter as there is not much room for this to be done

Lets you adjust fuel/air to best.

Barry you probably aint got enough miles on it to worry about. LOL

[bongobobny]

Yup, it's to balance/adjust your air/fuel mixture! The other way to do it is with a CO sniffer and monitor each cylinder at the exhaust for the perfect CO value. I forgot what that value is but it's either .5 or 2 or something like that. Doing a carb sync does not set the fuel mixture needle valves...

Where do you get one these

i may be able to come that far ,got to see if its feasible for me

Gunnison Color Tune I think. But I don't want the simple kit. I lost mine at the last Skid-In. Getting ready to replace it.
