Carb sync & Valve adj.

[Royal Venturer]

Hi Everyone,

I've been amongst the forum since 2004 (before the server crash, some will remember that). not always a contributor but a avid consumer of the outstanding knowledge here..

I bought my 2005 silver RSV in dec of 04. Well, after 2 knee replacements I'm going smaller with bike needs. Probably a super sport tourer, FJR, connie, still looking.

I have mine tore down, cleaning up the carbs, changing the coolant, adj the valves. i'll admit that buying all the tools I need for this is not a prudent long term investment. I don't for see ever adj. valves, syncing carbs going forward because I'm going to sell the big girl.

My ask is there anybody who will let me borrow their Carbtune sync, a valve shim kit? I had to trash my mecury sticks, they were shot.

I know this is a big ask, but I'm hoping the generosity will prevail. I can pay all shipping involved and rental if asked and will treat your tools with the utmost care.

Thank you,

There is a valve adjustment shim kit that someone here has that they loan out. Search it it’s here somewhere. Sync tool, I don’t know.

Check with Skydoc_17, he has a shim set he loans with the purchase of the gaskets. Makes the job much easier. I used it last spring.
