Hi,
i'm trying to sync the carbs on my trusty CBF500, but i can't for
the life of me find where to connect the little tubes to the carb!
(i'm using the bottle with water method) I've been staring at it
for a day now, and can't find the screws, tubes or whatever it is
that i need to plug these little tubes in.

most other bikes seem to either have a small screw on either
the cylinder head of the carb self or they use the vacuum tube
that is attached to the autovalve (wich i have). For my left carb
i could use the last mentioned tube but the right one does
not seem to have one.

if someone could just send me in the right direction it would
be appreciated allot!

p.s. Sorry if my English seems of, this is not my native language,
i trust that you all understand me though

I've now levelled up to the point I can balance twins by ear. You should increase your exp by watching internet videos and practising two handed screwdrivering. At level 25 you will be able to Thumbs Up

same place as on the cb500 twin, but on the cbf500 you have to remove some hoses to use the plugs. i'm going to try tomorrow and i'll post if it worked properly, just in case anybody ever wonders the same as me!
