btw
Vacuum gauges work well too, and a set up can be made at home. I currently use but one gauge, but a 4 gauge set up would be easier to use.

For the price, and home use, can't beat the motion-Pro choice. It works well. Only objection is go down to your local Napa and buy ya 12ft. of 'real' vacuum hose as the plastic hose is a pain and doesn't like XSesive hot pipes. Don't ask how I know this.

.. 56 bucks is the best price that i have seen, never seen one for under 65 bucks before this, i would get the white motion-pro gauge from bikebandit.
now that yellow one further down the page at $108! i bet they dont sell many of those.

Try Dennis Kirk. got mine for 'bout $40 + shipping. Whatever you pay, get one!!! Best way to get carbs dialed in. DO NOT rev the motor when a merc gauge is hooked up. There was a thread here where someone made one from PVC, some vac gauges and a bunch of tubing.

yup, works too

Took me about 15 minutes to make mine. (ten minutes scrounging parts, 5 minutes to put together)

webbcraft2150. don't have to worry bout 'blippin' the throttle to seat the screw threads and reajust as the tubes are long enough you won't even come close to getting mercury hitting the top of tubes with the Motion Pro merc tubes.

I would recommend the Morgan Carbtune at http://www.carbtune.com/carbpric.html .

A bit more money but you don't have to worry about sucking the mercury out of them because they don't have any.
