Think of balancing the carbs on an older 4cylinder bike, these do the same thing to fine tune the airflow between cylinders so they match. If they are way out of whack it can cause problems.If you think that is the source of your issues you'll need 4 vaccum gauges to hook up all at once and compare readings with the bike running. If your at a no-start problem again, you could try setting them to a default, but then you risk making things worse and will definitely need to balance them afterwords.
