Synched my throttle bodies... - Yamaha FZ6 Forums - International FZ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

Hondo64d · 06-16-2008, 03:52 PM

Got a Motion Pro Carb Synchronizer for Father's day. Took it out immediately and synched my throttle bodies. They weren't terribly far out, but synching seemed to smooth it out a little. With what dealers charge for maintenance, I figure the thing paid for itself after the first use...

Many thanks to Fred and Hellgate for posting the how-to video!

You are welcome John. Fred did the most of the work, syncing and video production, I was just sponging his knowlegde in.

Link to said video? Can't find it in the video section, the garage section, or the How To section. I'm planning to do this in about a week.

Thanks for the links guys... not sure what to make of the "can of corn" comment. I'm the Hebrew Hammer biatch!

Can of Corn is a baseball term for, "easy". Like an easy pop fly to catch.

Got it, I'm more of a hockey guy so that went totally over my head.
