Re: Monometers

Hey I did find this from a buddy that frequents the suzuki forums. http://www.carbtune.com/ It is funny because I actually talked him out of buying one when I was working on his Suzuki 4 cylinder and I told him I would build my own manometer to tune the four carbs. I tuned all four with the home mad...

Re: Monometers

Oh well that link to the harmonizer vacuum multi-tool currently sets at about 38 pages or so of threads, read them all and at the end it says he is suspending further orders LOL. I should have read the book from back to front this time. I am still unclear on even how to order one. I suppose I will k...

Monometers

I have been using my home made manometer for a while now when tuning my carbs but I was hoping someone could recommend one with nice gauges or digital display. I do this enough that I wish to invest in a little better piece of equipment. I'm tired of having to keep the liquid in the tube :)

Re: First time poster, and was hoping I could get an opinion

No problem, just changed the order to a 90/90 by 19 Bridgestone spitfire. Now if I can just cancel the tube. It is a shame as the 100/90 was about 14 bucks cheaper. But I am sure I will tell it in the ride based on the comments above. I hopefully caught the places before they shipped. Sweet, got the...

Re: First time poster, and was hoping I could get an opinion

I am not sure I understand. On the first page someone mentioned the 100/90 19 tire was the stock size for my bike. I did not think I was going bigger on the front but staying stock. I guess I ordered the wrong tire? I guess what I am saying is that I thought the advice was to stay stock, which I am ...

Re: First time poster, and was hoping I could get an opinion

I've done a bit more research and I found out the 74 has a particular problem even with the 100/90 by 19 tire. http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=658765 Apparently there are some variations within manufacturers even though the tires are "standard". I think that by getting the ...

Re: First time poster, and was hoping I could get an opinion

Ok. So the current thinking is that I should keep the regular tire that I have been running on the front. By that I mean the stock tire that they call for. I appreciate the replies! I guess I spent that money for a larger fork brace was a waste :(

Re: First time poster, and was hoping I could get an opinion

I'll try a 3.50 and see how that works. Hopefully my aluminum wheels may experience a bit let bashing.
