i really need to do alot of maintenance to my bike right now,including synchronizing the throttle bodies.
was going to have Lees do it,but i just quit my job, and have no extra money,so i'm going to have to do all the maintenance myself.
does anyone know how to do this? or have the parts needed to synch them?
03 R6
thanks for any help

shouldnt it be the same as synching the carbs?
all you would need is the carb synch tool

i think you have to do something like take the pressure from each one and adjust them all to be nsync with #3,but i don't know for sure. i also don't have any idea what tools i need.
remember,it's fuel injected. :)

wait a minute, why do you synch your TB's? Your bike is an 03, you don't do a synch till about 25K miles!

I got mercury stick synchronizers if NEbody needs to use 'em. :)

Can't promise the adapters will fit your TB's though.:|

Bill, will those mercury stick synchro fit carb'd engines and do you know how to synch carbs?

I bought them for my '76 Honda CB750K, so yeah, they work on carbs just as well. I'm still in the tear-down process, so I haven't synced 'em yet, but it doesn't appear to be too difficult a process, other than getting fuel to the bike with the tank off.
