Default Carb sync adapter piece?

Im about to sync my carbs because its idling rough and often stumbles and when trying to rev off idle. I am having trouble finding the adapter piece that needs to be used to hook up your line to the 1st cylinder.

I went to ace and homedepot/lowes and had no luck finding this m5 to 1/4" tube fitting. What does everyone else use? Is making my own the only way?

They are about 3-4 bucks at the dealership. Sometimes it's worth it to just buy the darnthing.

3 to 4 bucks sounds more than worth it to me! Better than taking it somewhere to get the carbs done.

I can't quite remember, but I think you need the 5mm adapter. Double check, but here is a link to the Motion Pro 5mm adapters.

yep its 5mm. I managed to find it on a parts site w/ a parts number but the local honda car dealers dont have the piece and the only motorcycle dealer is like 60 miles away. All the motorcycle shops are closed today so Ill try to go bum one tomorrow.

Here it is just for refrence #6 JOINT, BOOST
