It seems to me its not exactly a precise thing lol. For a start one side if the float looks to sit higher than the other when you measure.. bike has only done 7k and everything inside it is gleaming but there is a fair amount of play on all floats..Yup, they're pretty wobbly, but you're not adjusting valves where you have to be 0.01mm precise. A steel ruler will do. Have you found the point where they stop moving as you gently rotate the bank of carbs and managed to get a measurement at all?
I will have another look tomorrow. Just getting a bit peeved with it now.
It's tricky holding them and rotating and measuring all at the same time and I found that as I rotated the bank of carbs, there was a lot of wobbling but they did settle in that mid position. Just gently rotated them so they are just moving and then they kind of lurch to the mid position, stop and then lurch again.
I can't remember which side I took the measurement, I just started at one end. I think it was the nearside...
