carb balancing with manometer problem - Page 2 - SV650.org

No idea on the joke/song (?) or the carbs.

Got to be some fault in how it's connected though.
Should have running problems if it is that far off.

Been a while since I heard that one.
The green fur outfit does match Northwind's bike quite well.

It was that far out, put the pipes direct onto the carbs, removed the extension to the front carb, and was still the same.
Managed to damp the tubes, then adjusted them & hey presto, after 1/2 hour go them balanced.
Sounds slightly better, no hunting at all now, its not until you do it you understand that it did sound slightly rough before.

Its not that difficult a job assuming you dont mind taking half the bike appart to get to the front carb!

If I can do it anyone can.
