Ok, Im convinced, I ordered the colortune pro. with 4 12mm plugs. Freebird, I have an '06 RSTD. How do you access the pms with tank and airbox in place. I can't even see the pilot screws from the sides..

Ya, Snyper316, I have seen this video. This one and the one they show at the site, they impressed me to be curious. It seemed like a legit device. So if you guys are using with success then the folks reviews running it down must have not known what was going on.. This will be a likely purchase for me then. Also, I have watched Pucs vids as well on the carb sync even though its a different gauge set than the Carbtune, but I understand that process.. Thanks for the advise and recommendation. So,I assume with the gen 2 Royals its not an issue to have the tank and air box off while trying to adjust the pms???

Thanks for chiming in here brother. I wasnt sure if there would be a sequence or not..Thought I would do the carb sync after adjusting the pilot mix. I recently ordered the carbtune and saw the colortune product and was impressed by it but saw some reviews that it was not so good a product , so I did not purchase. Do you or anyone else on the forum use the colortune device? and Have you had good luck with it? Next, I cannot get to the pilot screws from the sides, all I see are the drain screws on the carb bowls. Maybe, there is a special tool for that or can I adjust the pilots with the tank and breather box off the the carb pac? Appreciate any advise on this. So used to V-twins this V-4 is all new.... I think I mentioned in my first post that I had blocked the AIS. Today I took the baffles out of the LA Choppers and put a 1inch wrap on them, Toned it down nicely and it seemed to run a little smoother but for sure the carbs are out of balance.

Yeah, I know how to sync the carbs..not a problem.. I am wondering if there is a procedure for adjusting the carbs prior to syncing. setting pms that sort of thing.. All reading seems to say 2 1/2 turns out is to much for what I have done...im sure there is a procedure for setting the pms but is there also a sequence for the carb pac???

Hey folks, I bet there is a thread for this that I have not found yet. Let me start by stating my ride is '06 RSTD. I started out to get some better sound and a little more power. I gutted my stockers and got a terrible popping. bypassed the AIS and this helped some. Then I took the carbs off to get at pms. I backed those out to 31/2 turns. This also helped more but not enough. Reading here and on the other RSV/RSTD sites it appeared that syncing was the problem, again no good. I REBUILT the carbs went up one size on all the jets.. pilots from 15 to 17.5 and since the carbs have different the mains for #1 &2 were 122.5 to 125 #3 117 to 120 #4 120 to 122.5...maybe vice versa on these two. Adjusted floats I started pilot screws to 2.5 turns and installed a set of LA Choppers bag slash. carbs definitely need to be synced. I have a carbtune on the way from U.K. any day now. The bike sounds good accept for odd bump in idle which I attribute to carb balance. much more power and throttle response. good sound.. WHAT I NEED TO KNOW IS??? THE CORRECT PROCEDURE FOR ADJUSTING THIS CARB PAC BEFORE I TRY TO SET THE IDLE AND SYNC. If someone can answer I would most appreciate!!

I know this is an old thread but I would like to know what driver or tool everyone uses to reach the pilot screws and the linkage screws for the syncing???
