I've used several styles over the years and the Morgan Carbtune is the best.

The dollar/pound exchange rate should have them under $100

If I remember correctly, ronkz650 had issues with his...
Again, I'm old and stupid so don;t mind me...

Now, you asked what we feel is the best and several of us have informed you the Morgan unit is about the best your going to find... Yes, it's a little more than the Motion pro unit there but we're speaking of what $20 or so...

The Morgan is extremely accurate and worth every penny but it's your bike/carbs so do what you feel is right for you...

I've got the motion pro unit, its ok. I've had temporary problems with the fluid sticking up in the tubes, but its fixable.

The morgan units work flawlessly everytime.

Hi DA... I got a set of Vacuum Gauges from SportingForLess.com. I see they are going now for about $58 USD. I bought the aluminum box locally to save a few bucks. See here:

Gauges

Mine looked similar to these:



They work very well for my KZ650.

Best of success.
