   The best is from Morgan at http://carbtune.com It is also the most expensive. Many if not most do their syncing with less expensive set-ups.

I agree with Mick, but I suspect it can be done via any of the three most common methods. Might want to check out a poll posted on this very topic at..

I went to my local dealer and got a Motion Pro mercury manometer (AKA Carb Stix) for about $50.  It was well worth it and wasn't hard at all if you hang the stix on the handlebars.  Just be careful handling the mercury and make sure it doesn't get sucked into your engine by revving too high.

One thing I have noticed with mercury sticks is that while they are reuseable forever, you want to seal the ends of the tubes to keep out moisture. Not too much get is and will not do anything to the engine, it might throw off the measurements.

what do you do about air bubbles in the line, I can't seem to get rid of mine.  When I check the readings, I don't know whether to line up the air bubbles or the mercury.
