Re: Something new, balancing carbs?
Carbs on these bikes are a delicate subject. One thing I would have to say is that never ever remove the plastic plate underneath the carbs, it's right at the front in the V of the frame.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
What Tuono do you have ? I have had a fling with a few Apes . 07 Tuono, 13RSV , and a Shiver 750. Nice bikes to ride however, I am glad I kept the VTR.

Lightened flywheel, jet kit, etc etc.
The bug has bitten.
The one known as obsessive compulsive modding.
Great to see.
The red one was a cracker but then again I could be biased.

Re: High rise handle bars
Or if you are just after the bars being higher get a set of adjustable bars like Apex .
There are other brands available I'm sure however I forget their names.

Re: Worth replacing fork springs?
Maybe it's already been done?
Disassemble first and see.
After 6 years idle I am sure that there are other things that require attention first.
Also does it have manual cam chain Tensioners, if not that is the first job at hand.
Any mods been done to her ?
Can you post some pics ?
