Sweet change of pace! Is that just shy of a half gallon?

How many carbs? I just used vinyl tubing filled with oil for a twin. Never had anything with more cylinders and I don't remember you having anything with that many carbs.
See
http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/How_do_...carburetors%3F

and

http://www.obairlann.net/reaper/moto...manometer.html

I used oil instead of water because it doesn't break things if it gets sucked into the engine. I didn't bother with the board on mine. I would just loop the tubing over the handle bars.

I guess if my bikes didn't have FI, you would think I rode a KLR.

Of course if you have something with more than 2 carbs or TB, then this is completely of no use.
