Anyone has a suggestion for a good, affordable throttle body synchronizer for the R1100? Thank you!
What ever tool you use I suggest leaving it hooked up and driving down the street to dial in the cables. I found it to be more accurate putting the engine under a load. 2cd or 3rd gear at a steady moderate speed.

I don't understand why the throttle body synchronizers cost literally 3 times the price of a carb synchronizer? I can get a carburetor synchronizer for $30 and even less.
$35 for 4 cylinder ( https://www.ebay.com/itm/165675211364 ), the same for 2 gauges available for $27 and I already had the 2 gauage. I tried these and the needles just bouncing all over not showing any specific values. So I watched a video on synchronizing throttle bodies and the person there also said that you need a tool specifically for fuel injected throttle bodies otherwise carb gauges will just bounce. I also don't understand it but that is exactly how it was.
There's no difference.
I have one of those. It came with adjustable flow reducers. I've used this with good success to balance my 2003 RT.$35 for 4 cylinder ( https://www.ebay.com/itm/165675211364 ), the same for 2 gauges available for $27 and I already had the 2 gauage.

I wouldn't part with the Harmonizer that I use now for ANY reasonable amount.
I have no idea how you got so lucky, tibork and rogerc60 -- the one time I ordered a 4-pack of those cheapo vacuum gauges, I got gauges that each read a different number at the same vacuum level. ...
