The Harmonizer should be popular with the Super Tenere crowd. There are reports that they aren't balanced very well from the factory.

I'm going to get a look at one here (#27 in the US) in the next week or so. I haven't seen one in person yet - looking forward to it!

Yippee........mine arrived today...........12 days due to Canada Customs/Post. No import taxes/duties, so that was good.

Looks good........lousy weather here.....so the perfect time to calibrate a couple of bikes.

Thanks

This is very easy to use...........thanks!

Grok, found my Harmonizer when I got home from work tonight (as promised, thank you sir), and immediately went to work on my '06 GSA. balanced the throttle bodies and set my warm idle to exactly 1000 rpm. Fiddled with the Bowden cable, took it for a test ride, and up to 6000 rpm, the max deviation was 20 mbar. That was at slow throttle openings between 1000 and 1600 rpm.

Close enough for me.

Thanks for the clarification on "gauge mode."

Thanks again, Grok. Nice bit of kit.

Okay... I was sceptical that it would be an improvement over the Twinmax... Just having the Tach alone on the machine places it far above other tools. The 81 g/s has no tach from the factory, no wonder I was having problems with balancing and stalling - idle to my ears was set to 700rpm. Much easier to tune with it correct. Happy with this purchase!

Got home from a business trip to find mine waiting for me. Particularly appreciate the low value on the customs slip which saves me a significant amount of import duty and tax, thanks for that. Looking forward to playing with it soon.

Brad Felmey · 09-01-2011, 04:20 PM

What is the tachometer increment?

johnjen · 09-01-2011, 04:43 PM

Tach 0-9990 RPM (<1500RPM 10 RPM steps, >1500RPM 50RPM steps))

Got mine today and used it to dial in my sync on my Super Tenere and I am very impressed. Easy to use and works as advertised.

I posted a review on YSTF.

Thanks!

Coincidentally, I had a chance to help a local Super Tenere owner (US #27) sync his bike on Thursday.
I followed your writeup on yamahasupertenere.com

Worked out very well!

The owner let me ride the bike a bit. I like it. Aside from a few correctable ergonomic issues, I was quite impressed with it!

I forgive you for being skeptical
