I'm sure this has been covered before but haven't found any info on a late model FJR. I performed my second throttle body adjustment on my 2016ES. First I tried to use a two cylinder harmonizer and adjust one cylinder at a time against the master (#3) as I like how the harmonizer has no bounce in it and seems very accurate, however, I later read that making adjustments in one cylinder slightly affects the others so a perfect sync might be difficult. So I went back in with a Carbtune Pro and started over and found that everything was close but not in perfect balance, so I made the necessary adjustments and cylinders 1-3 were spot on but 4 was just a hair low so I went to turn the screw in and after just a slight turn the screw bottomed out. It seems within spec but is this normal? What happens when I do my next sync and cylinder 4 is low but there's no adjustment left?
I took a short ride today and the bike SEEMED to run smoother(probably a placebo effect), but still buzzy in the right hand. I'm also wondering if the Carbtune could be out of sync? Not worried about it, just curious if there might be someone who's also had this happen and what he/she did to correct it. Bike's running great so I'm not gonna fart with it until it's next service, just want to be prepared.
Thanks for any info!
