Now that you're here.
I had some time in my schedule for a tuning session on Strafer and SkullDuggery. After the trauma of last Sundays run against an R1, I wanted to see if there were any problems left behind. The troubles of that day seem to have had no ill effects. Strafer had been sync'd with my Ancient Mercury Manometer and briefly checked with CaptainKyle's Gauges prior to the day in question. I picked up a new non mercury manometer a while back. It allows for calibration prior to any work... Motion Pro, Sync Pro.
A little tweek here and there and everything's within 1/2 bar (1 in hg) or less. No bouncing or other indications of valve spring displacement or damage. TG...
I moved the 89 over and checked the gauges again for calibration. Amazingly they need to be set up again. Temperature over the other bike or who knows what. A tweek here and there and the same results on this one.. I still like the gauge with Stainless Steel Rods but this was there, on hand in the store when I needed it...
I probably over kill on the sync, doing it often and as tight as I can get it. Most feel that within 2 in hg is good so I've been told..:ummm:
I checked the oil levels on both bikes and set it at the top line with the bikes straight up...
