    Source for vacuum barbs.

    I need to synch the carbs after rebuild. Where can I source barbs for attaching my manometer?

    Also can anyone give a rundown on the procedure for doing 4 carbs? Easy enough on all my previous 2 carb bikes but a bit more challenging I think on a rack of 4.

    All help is appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Spyug.

    Carbtune sell the adapters for there seperate. I don't know how much or what sort of postage from Northern Ireland to you but there must be a stockist near to you.

      The actual procedure is not much different for a 4-cylinder than it is for a 2-cylinder. 8-[

      Assuming (yeah, I know) that this is on your 750, carb #3 is your master carb. (Just remember that the cylinders are numbered from clutch hand to throttle hand.) There are sync adjusters between 3&2, 2&1, and 3&4. First, adjust #2 to match #3, then adjust #1 to be .5cm higher than 2&3. Last, adjust #4 to match #1.

      When I sync carbs, I take a couple extra minutes to re-check the mixture screws for highest idle speed, then re-check the sync while the gauges are still connected. Just a little peace of mind.

        Check with Z1 Enterprises. www.z1enterprises.com. They sell a sync system with analog gages. Comes with brass barbs. You might be able to buy the barbs seperately. I like these barbs 'cuz they have the restrictors built in. Also two are longer for the inner cylinders.
