Bike engine carb tune/balancer

Hi

Before I get loads of posts about how I can make one with 2p worth of tubing a bit of wood and some coloured water; I know I can but I don't want to!

So, has anyone got a carbtune that they would like to swap for some cash?

Thanks

I bought a set of these , others have mocked them but they work fine, as long as you ignore the graduations and get each needle reading the same.

Swap the pipes round so a different gauge is on each carb, if the readings are the same you know the gauges are balanced, mine ar fine.

The rubber pipes perish quickly though, I've replaced them with washer jet tubing.
