[QUOTE="stumpy lord, post: 1127, member: 207"] [b]carb balancing[/b] Hi Stuart, Balancing carbs on a vincent is not very hard, all you have to do is place the machine on its stand and with the digit finger of your left hand up the bellmouth of the rear carb[ finger lightly touching the rear slide]lean over the machine so that you can see the front carb slide,and with your right hand slowly and gently open the throttle. this way you will be able to ascertain which carb is leading , and be able to adjust as necessary on the cable adjusters. Not as hard as it sounds. cheers norm.:o [/QUOTE]
