I installed them right. Only thing has me confused is whether they should be on the sync pro side or the bike/calibration manifold side.

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.
haha, you were asking her to meet up with me? haha, scary thought! The place this company is based is in the North of the country, in the United Kingdom...a mere 100 miles from Dublin in the Republic of Ireland. Lucky I am in Dublin every weekend...so if she changes her mind let me know, I can pick yours up directly from the shop and have it transferred to her!

Tell me about it, that SBN crowd are a tough lot to crack...haha! but great forum over there too...

100 miles? I think I just got a geography lesson, lol. "The United Kingdom consists of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales" from wikapedia. Honestly, I didn't know this. LOL Sorry for going OT. She left today already and didn't leave me a phone number to contact her, figures.

Re: Throttle Body Synchronization

haha, no worries. It is a big history lesson that would keep you very very busy for the next few years if i even began to tell you about the north and republic of ireland. Its only 50 miles from where I am now to the republic...a mere 1 hour drive...but this part of the country is run by the queen of england while the rest of the country is run by the Irish themselves. Not that I'm complaining (much) but I do get paid in Sterling so that is about the only positive I have while living in the north...o and my friends...thats it. It simply doesn't feel like Ireland, with the Union Jack on all streets, deep down it hurts like hell but what can you do. The majority of people in N Ireland are ok with it, the war is over now for a few years but the troubles are still ongoing in places. The army are off the streets but they are still actively building "peace walls" which really should be called segregation walls or "protective walls"!!!!

Still...life goes on, and peacefully thank god...no more bombs or shootings here since I moved here last year.

anyways, I degress from the thread!!

Re: Throttle Body Synchronization

I've posted this up on my irish bike forum too so i'll wait and see if interest is high there too...I've just sent off an email to Morgan himself to see what type of discount we can get. I've also asked his permission to organise a group code that will allow each person to order a unit themselves and input the code in to gain the discounted price...i just hope this can be organised by him...i'll let you all know.

I checked my email again.

If you purchase the 4 chamber unit on its own you will get 5 pound discount

If you purchase the 4 chamber unit with the pouch you will get 7 pound discount.

These are "starting from" discounts...so the more we have the more we should get off...I'll keep you up to date on his replies to me.

Anyways, I gotta get to bed already...its 3.55 in the morning!!! damned internet and its distractions!!

Re: Throttle Body Synchronization

Hay everyone, I spoke to Morgan today and unfortunately he will only be able to accept a single payment for all the units we want. The savings would have been £4.90 for the unit by itself and £5.40 for the unit and pouch...

Because I'm a student I can't possibly do this so the discount is a no go.

I still think its a good unit to buy even if it costs the full price. So whoever is interested in the unit you can order it right away yourselves but there will be no discount.

I'm sorry for all that, he has had bad experiences in the past with a group order where only one of the people ordered and they got the discount on the basis that more then 10 would so I understand his position.
