FWIW, you should check your valve clearances before you bother syncing the carbs. Not that it won't make a difference, but if you have a few tight...

Sadly enough, Randy, I'm more of an expert than I'd like to be on this exact experience... :smile:

What do you normally like?
Because most everybody does, all of us included. :smile: It is usually something like putting your foot down on gravel or oil, or pushing the...
I tend to agree with Mello. Bodywork, of any kind, is expensive to replace, so a naked bike might be a better choice. Given your size, the...
Based on the way they are located with reference to the cam/valves, I'd suspect that turning them clockwise would decrease clearance, and CCW...

Ditto that! If I'm ever financially stable again, I'll probably stay with the maduro 3000's and Arturo Fuente Hemmingway Classics. Or save my...
The Nica Libre are similar to Padron maduro 2000 / 3000 / 5000 etc. series, if you've ever tried them. The Padrons are medium-full, and are really...
