Nice Tool, good deal, but

@ 15.87 ZAR to 1 GBP, I'll have to wait untill the Rand recovers.

Ok I ran into a bit of trouble. I tried calibrating the Motion Pro as instructed in the service manual using the cyl#1. I even turned all the screws CCW to lower the levels. But still when I started the bike the fluid got sucked into the tubes. Fortunately I killed the ignition before it entered the engine. What am I doing wrong?

Yes extend this to Sportsbikes.net

EDIT~: I've put a post onto sportbikes.net too!

you are holding the tool upright, correct? you need gravity pushing down on the fluid.

did you install the restrictors correctly (proper side of the hose and also proper direction)?

Well I guess this is a project for this weekend, I got 5500 miles so I guess I'll check it out. It'll be the first time.

I'm curious though about this "Calibration" of the motion pro gauges. I have a set of the Motion Pro mercury gauges and they look similar to the one pic'd on this thread. Since the gauge is just liquid in tubes to counter the vacuum what is there to calibrate?

All I have ever done is hook the gauges up and follow sync procedure in the manual for my XS11.

This would be one of the reasons I want to go with the Morgan Carbtune, no fluids, let alone mercury.

Ok so far we have:

Biker Dude

Mellofellow

urbanj

SJK625

D-Mac

Scorphonic

Antijoy

Brandad

That makes 8 so far...who else would be interested?

Exhaust = 300+ dollars
Keeping your engine in tip top condition and happy = 100 dollars.

Go on...you know you want to get a deal on this!

EDIT: In order to get this thing moving I have now put this onto my home countries bike forum to get the numbers up. I'll let you know how many I have by the end of the weekend. Sportbikes.net is not going anywhere yet.

+1 on the restrictors. Make sure they are all in there. The orifice in the restrictors are so small, I cant imagine how fast the fluid would move without the restrictors in there. Don't worry if the engine sucks in some of the fluid. As long if its a small amount I dont think it will hurt it.

1 so far from SBN

So that makes 9 so far...come on people...i cant believe others on here are not jumping at this...is it because it doesn't make a noise of flash? :P

**bd43** · 10-09-2008, 07:11 PM

I see mb one person on SBN might be in after all that.

A coworker is on her way to Scotland and stopping in Dublin for a couple of days. I asked her if she wouldn't mind to pick one up for me. The dazed look I got from her was enough communications conveying "NO". I guess that was stupid of me to ask, thinking to myself what she might have to say to customs when she re-enters Canada trying to explain what the thing was... kind of laughed to myself as I walked away from her. Geesh. I know, pathetic, I just know the value of having one of these in my tool box, I guess.
