What does it take to sync the VT 1100C2 carbs? I have only dealt with single carbs in the past.

@Jamie Potter a carb syncing tool and a fuel iv setup. hook up the iv to the carbs, because you cant do this with the tank on the bike, hook up the sync took to the vacuum ports just behind each intake port, ,adjust the valves on the sync tool till the needles arent bounsing super crazy, and make slight adjustments to hey sync screw till both needles sit right at the same spot. 

The vacuum gages TJ showed are good. I bought a similar 4 gauge set a few years ago to sync 4 carbs. Initially, before using the gauges, I "T" them all to a single vacuum source (mighty-vac) and adjusted the gauges to read the same, Then I sync'd the carbs. Out of the box, only two of the 4 read the same. Does it really matter? I think it does. Also, once connected to the bike, open the bleeder valves until the needle pulses back and forth. slowly close the bleeders until the pulsing just disappears. Careful not to close them too far or the needle wont move. Verify the needle move blipping the throttle.
@TJ thanks TJ for responding to my question
