I have carb styx mercury gauges. I guess you can't get them now. :dry: I've seen some pretty good ones here lately, you might want to search.

i picked up a morgan carb tune. It works fine. Probably paid for itself already. I was talking with a guy outside homedepot probably late 50s early sixties. He was telling me about my bike, he used to have a kz1000 years ago, and the tool they had back then to synch the carb. I told him about the morgan which is fairly straight forward and I got the feeling this particular tuner was not available then.

I use the gauges shown below, and they work great, but do not buy cheap gauges as they are junk. Ed

+1 on the Carbtune. I was going to get the Motion Pro but reviews were mixed. you have to refill it and worry about tipping it over. The price on the Carbtune is just a little more than the Motion Pro and they are harder to find. It seems they don't have dedicated distributor in the US but you can find them out of the UK especially on ebay. Keep an eye out you can get a slightly used one in the neighborhood of $100. That's what I did and the case was included which is a $30 upgrade.
