synchronising carbs

In order to sync my carbs (1995 Thunderbird 900) I must remove the fuel tank. Any ideas for what I can use as a temporary fuel source. Something nice an simple would appeal .

 

Hi Craig, you can use the fuel tank itself if when you take it off, you place it on a table or similar assuming the pipe is long enough.

If not, cut the bottom off a plastic pop bottle, rig up a pipe between it and the carbs and have the bottle as high as you can make it, above the bike.

 

I use a coolant header tank from a kawasaki

 

Thank you - useful ideas.

 

Have a look at this, it's a bit pricey but made for the job:

I bought one of these for doing throttle bodies on my FJR but bike wouldn't turn over with wiring to tank disconnected. I wouldn't imagine it would be a problem on a bike with carbs.
