Potentially, yes, but when and how you do it will depend on your bike – this is another reason why it’s very important to have a Haynes manual for your motorcycle.

One last thing, I highly suggest checking your bike for any vacuum leaks and fixing those issues before attempting to synchronize your carburetors.
You can also use the video guide and again I highly recommend watching it as they explain everything beyond the necessary volume.
There are written instructions that come with the tool and are sufficient enough to put the tool together.
If you are using your Motion Pro for the very first time, you will have to put it together. Make sure you get this before you start this project. However our Yamaha's will need the 6mm adapter. NOTE: The Motion Pro: Sync Pro Carb Tuner comes with 5mm metal spigots used on most Honda and Suzuki models for carburetor synchronization. Considering I was quoted $80 for a carb synchronization from a mechanic, buying the tool and learning the skills to do the job myself was more appealing. I thought the whole thing very educational, and I highly recommend you watch it before you perform the synchronization yourself. I referenced the video Radare posted for this project and ended up buying the Motion Pro: Sync Pro Carb Tuner used in the video. Since I could not find too much information pertaining to carburetor synchronization exclusively for the XJ600 using this method, I thought I would share my experience with the rest of you.
I figure some of you XJ riders out there might run into the same questions I did. I've run into a couple issues while trying to sync up my carburetors.
