Default carb synch and valve adjust

somewhere on here someone asked a few months back about the cost... well, the only mechanic I trust aside from myself is Marv at rocky mountain kawasaki. i would have done it myself but, summer is my busy season so when Marv said it would cost me $320 total... I didn't mind.

looks like my fiddling with the jets and airbox mod were close to dead on when he put it on the e.g.a. just couldn't tell for sure cuz the carbs were so outa synch.

i've had it back from the shop for a couple of weeks and damn if that bike doesn't scream... and idle!

This is the one I use, I also have the extensions so it is easier to connect.

Right on Heffay. Glad to see you comfy with the ride now. Usually around $100 initial costs to buy sync tools after adaptors, etc.
