Does any one know if Harbor Freight sells a carb sync tool?

Nothing even close on their website.

 

This is what most are using for Ventures, http://www.carbtune.com/

I have been using this on all multi carb bikes for several years:

Emgo 84-68594.

A google search will produce several places selling them

10spd You wouldn't want it if they did. I have a Carbtune I no longer have a use for as I don't have a Venture any more and I don't work on other peoples bikes any more either. $75 postage paid.With case.

If he doesn't take it Pegasus I will!!!

That's an awesome deal I would say

 

Living life one curve after the other. Vroom scooting, thru the countryside.

I also use a set of vacuums gauges like the Emgo 84-68594. These work very well.

I decided to take it. it is cheaper than having a shop do it.

I use a set similar to the Emgo gauges Here's a link on EBay -- http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNIVERSAL-MOTORCYCLE-4-CYLINDER-CARBURETOR-SYNCHRONIZER-TUNER-5MM-6MM-/302156960566?hash=item4659f55336:g:bRoAAOSwo4pYRDVy&vxp=mtr

I've found these to be a bit more accurate than the Carb Tune type and very easy to use

This link even comes with a carry case. What I have is more like the following kit I have, though mine didn't come with the tire spoons. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Vacuum-Carburetor-Synchronizer-carb-sync-Gauge-3-Spoon-Motorcycle-Tire-Levers-/391655319777?hash=item5b3079e8e1:g:tbQAAOSwZJBX~Uke

Myself I have the gauges but for my tastes, they are not sensitive enough IMHO for super close balancing...

You need the gauge sets with adjustable valves to get fluctuations steady. Jay / Ragtop did several carb syncs at Don's MD last year using my gauges. Thought your bike was one of them?

For what its worth IMO gauges are still better than sticking sticks.

No, it is not an issue of them bouncing around, if anything they are a little sluggish and read low.

 

Etcswjoe did my carbs with his "sticks" at MD...

Hey Bob..

 

.Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and Becky.

 

I also have a Carbtune I had ordered from England and never even opened the box.

 

Don't need it anymore since I now have fuel injected bike.

 

Same price. Can hold it for you if you still need one,till we meet again. Don't like the mailing hassles. ( Custom forms etc).

Don't multi cylinder EFI bikes still need to be synced, unless they are running a common throttle body setup? The sync only gets all of the throttle plates to open at the same time so all cylinders are working equally has nothing to do with fuel air mixture.

The carbTune is sold to 10spd. ASAP he lets me know the address where he wants it sent,it will be gone.

Not sure, FF. Am not very mechanical minded. Don't know why I even ordered it, in first place. I just like buying stuff.

The vacuum gauges are also able to be calibrated. I used a new set a few times and wasn't really happy with the results. Then I realized they could be calibrated and that made a huge difference

Thanks, Abdul, I'll take it!! We won't be at Saddlebum's M&E but if Father Time does another March one we will probably be at that one. I will pay you in person!

I also did a carb sync with carbon one's gage set, much better then carb tune. with that being said, the carb tune gets the job done. But not as accurate.

Hello everyone and happy new year
