View Full Version : Borrow vacum gauges to balance carbs

The bike is getting very "lumpy" and starting to hesitate from lowish revs when increasing the throttle.

I'm assuming this is a sign the carbs may well need balanced again. It's been about a year since they were last done (~5000 miles).

So ... would anyone in Guildford have a set of vacum gauges and 30 mins of their time to run through how to connect them to the SV ? I'm happy doing all the servicing onthe bike and have been for the last 12,000 miles but i've always had the garage balance the carbs up to now.

I'm in Merrow so if anyone is able to help out, even to let mne borrow a set of gauges for the weekend it would be appreciated.

cheers,

mark.
