Hi Turtle. I have a Carbtune set I used when I had the valkyrie. I am willing to sell them, make me an offer I can't refuse.

HI Turtle, I have a snail type syncro (they say they are better as it works in the trumpet of the inlet, not the internals of the carb's, but I have never use the other type)

This is the type, BUT not the one.

PM me your address and I'll post it to you and I can pick it back up off you at Middleton if you like.  It's easy to use and I have put instruction in the box with it.

Cheers
Dave

Hi Turtle i took my bike to Grumma Racing in Maddington. I got a full once over carbies balanced and the tappets adjusted. He was very helpfull and said that i would also need to replace my tyres as i would not make it back on the set that i have. He fitted Metzeler lasertec front and back. All up was $1000
