You were already pretty good ( ) at syncing carbs. Was the "before" pic a bike you had manually synced previously. What I'm asking is, are your new tools that much better at syncing then what you were already doing? It looks like it's probably a faster way for you to do it anyway. |

Had one to recheck few months ago and recently was little off only like 1/8th turn obviously it's pretty picky. Yes more quickly too it also will tell me if in stake or exhaust valve is leaking or not. Pretty cool... Will see in future if that happen and will adjust the valves then run it and see if that does tells. |

have you ever run the pilot screws just 1 turn out ? with a k&n and pipes desmoged I have 2 four gauge sets one is the Honda OEM set the other is made by K&L I wonder how close they might read out to something that accurate I also got some new toys a dual 6 inch buffing wheel a 6hp 30 craftsman compressor and a table top sand blasting cabinet I was glad my compressor fit in my extra garbage can holder on the side of my house so my 1 car garage is a bit quieter and more room too after buying about every chrome part I could find I am now changing my look to polishing all my parts to look plated and the bike looks better and cleaner with less add on parts and the original parts polished up less is more it was a bit cluttered before  |

Pilot 1 turn out is a bit too much. Usually 1/4 to 1/2 turn out is about right.... What mpg are u getting at? At average 65-75 mph |

to run the long pipes I need to install the stock 13 in OEM shocks or risk draggin them but damm they look good like that I have a set of slide on shortie canisters for the 11 in progressive shocks two brothers makes several canisters that fit the headers and all can be packed for the level of noise and backpressure you desire for the mood you are in with just removing and replacing a few rivets on the back of the canister these are the gauges I have 6Ujfe!~~60_57.jpg)  the Honda set works fine but the K&L set seems more accurate a higher quality gauge |

Accurate gauges are not really necessary for a good sync job.
The only requirement would be that all the gauges match.
The best way to test they are all equal would be to hook them all together with a common manifold and observe what each one reads.
In this situation, they should all read the same as each other, with very little discrepancy.
If the gauges are good ones, there should be an adjustment to allow you to zero them in.

bigbf I know and you know that the screws can be only out only one turn or less why do most books recommend the settings to be in the 1 3/4 to 2.5 turns out ?
