Title: Carb balancing tools..
Post by: phil mcglassup on 12 September 2016, 10:04:41 pm

On previous i4 bikes I've successfully used a DIY balancing tool consisting of two jam jars containing light coloured oil with plastic tubing etc.

Will my Fazer balance okay with this set-up or will I have to fork out for a proper tool !!

Try the Blue Peter website.


Maybe a few lollipop sticks, some plastic egg containers, and the rind of an orange might be beneficial as well.  :thumbup
