    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Vacuum Take Off Adaptor For Carb Balancing

So if I read this right all you have to is leave the sync adapters on an just connect them with some hose and I should have better low end response as well as better overall engine operation? Maybe I will try it.
Ahhh, yep. You read it right. Having done this on my last 4 GS's, I've found the most difficult part is installing the adapters. It used to be the most expensive part too but not after reading how to make the adapters from cap screws. Now the entire mod is pretty cheap. If I were to rate it on a "Bang for the buck" scale, I'd say its a close second to the coil relay mod. Its that good.

For the last three tanks of fuel, the mileage has remained at 42-42.5 MPG running it fairly hard. So it's official, vacuum in the crank case gets you better mileage. I have gained 6 MPG just using the Hayden Krank Vent. :D
 
Ironic that you should post a followup today as I have been giving this idea alot more thought and discussing it with friends as recently as this afternoon. Having read through the various threads pertaining to this idea, I recall someone posting the idea of using a vacuum booster valve. I'd like to find out if that person tried that idea and, if so, what were the results. I'm leaning towards giving that "low budget route" a try both on my 1100G and my 650 V-twin Hawk GT. If I do, I'll be sure to post my results.
