Purchased Morgan Carb Tune Pro to sync carbs on my 2 bikes, 78 KZ1000 went great, z1b carbs were a PITA, couldn’t get them to stay stable. Ended up a compromise. Morgan worked very well easy to use.

I like the simplicity of the Morgan. It is is grab and use. The liquid filled one I had before, would require calibrating and/or adding fluid before each use.

It works fine. Please don't ever consider the Motion Pro. It's the worst tool made since tools were invented in 2000BC. I'm referring to the new version, the mercury version back in the 70s works great.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

Dang Ron, pretty harsh on the "blue" fluid Motion Pro carb stick! I thought the worst tool invented was the advent of Harbor Freight drill bits? I've one of those fluid carb sticks i've used for years successfully. It is a pain to sync/calibrate all those individual tubes though!! I have an ole NOS original Mercury version just no mercury to fill. And MVENT YES, those old 72-75 "ramp" style Z1 carbs are indeed the worst of the Mikuni line-up to sync! Too much complexity of multiple springs/lever geometry. Adjust one and the adjacent one goes rouge, ha.
