Does anyone know whether levers are currently being manufactured or sold. Mine is showing wear "ovalling" of the hole where the lever rotates in the knuckle casting.

Gauge setup bungee'd to bike.

A shot of the spark plug terminal extenders that I use. These enable me to short out each cylinder in quick succession (with a screwdriver) to check for even running.

I have decided to post the doc that I have been putting together on this topic. Any comments from learned members would be appreciated. Posting it warts 'n' all; I'm sure there're lots of errors that I need setting straight on. The bike is a 1976 900SS with an engine rebuilt by VeeTwo (some 20 years ...

I would seem that getting two cylinders to run evenly through large-bore 40mm carbs is truly a dark art. The concept is simple enough but achieving it is no easy task. I'm in awe of the veterans who do it by ear... That and ...

Everything you stated makes perfect sense to me until the last sentence:


So back to the gauges. Open up the throttle to around 3,000 and this time adjust the cable adjusters to obtain equal vacuum readings. Don't ...

One trick that I learned some years ...
