Anyone swear to a specific type or brand of carb sync tool? In the market for one -
Preferably should be able to handle 2-4 carbs

Sounds like something Pettson and Findus would brew up in the old farmhouse barnI used the plastic hose on a piece of wood with good results
20 w 50 oil in it
Maybe sounds strange but I have used it ( principle ) professionally adjusting flow in Air condition Systems.Sounds like something Pettson and Findus would brew up in the old farmhouse barn
Huge price difference indeed - what’s causing the price diff ? My concern is quality of the meters - always a little suspicious when it to cheap ( although I like cheap)The local guru, who tunes carbs just about every day -- here's his link:

and who has used and gone through lots of vacuum gauges in his life, swears by this one:

He admonished me not to buy anything else, so I bought it. Then, I though this is crazy, I'll never work on a bike with more than two carbs, so I went all the way in the opposite direction money-wise and bought this:

I can't say. I never actually opened the K&L box. But yes, they sure look the same. Only diff I see is no K&L logo printed on the faces.DogBunny, the gauges on the cheaper 2 cylinder version look like the same ones used on that expensive K&L 4 cylinder unit. Are they?
I agree. But, for someone who might use it 4 or 5 times a year, I think I made the right move.Huge price difference indeed - what’s causing the price diff ? My concern is quality of the meters - always a little suspicious when it to cheap ( although I like cheap)
I used to have dial type sync gauges, then bought a motion pro manometer. Both worked well on my XS but when I tried to sync my Suzuki GT750, 2 stroke, they just didn’t work. Then I bought the Morgan Carbtune which worked great on everything I owned. It was expensive but I believe it’s a pretty good tool.I don't need one because I have an old Motion Pro Carbstix set-up, so old it has mercury in it, lol, and it works great. But, if I was in the market, I think I'd get the Morgan Carbtune Pro .....

Not really any more expensive than most of the other good ones out there, and it's supposed to be one of the best. Use it a few times and it will pay for itself with the money you save.
Just got mine yesterday - thanks for all the advise and recommendationsHands down Carbtune pro. Very easy to use and the rods are dead steady, no bouncing around or fluid to deal with.
