The easiest way to sync the carbs is to pull the filters and just look at the slides as you push the throttle. They should raise at the same time, and to get real close just feel both sides with your finger when the slides are flush with the top of the carb.

adjust the throttle cable on the top of the cap so they are both sliding up and down evenly

Oh ya........I forgot that part lol

you could do it the cowboy way or use a uni-sync its a tool that measures air flow cheap and easy just chuk it over the carb mouth and make sure the ball lines up the same on both carbs and you have perfectly synced carbs.

have a crack at pulling apart ya carbs as well there pretty simple just bust out the owners manual. and check ya choke tube is instaled that can cause lean conditions. (no smoke)
