    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.
