90 Degree Carb Adjustment Tool

I finally found a North American source for the carb adjustment tool that Morgan Carbtune sells across the pond;
http://www.pitbikecentral.com/Tools.htm

They also have an ebay store and accepted a $50 best offer for it there.
There aren't any listed there now (because I just bought it ), but I'm sure they'll add another.

I know there have been a few threads about these tools and thought some of you guys might still be looking for one. Morgan Carbtune's website still had it listed, but didn't have a button to add it to the cart.

That is an awesome price.

With exchange rate and shipping, you would be looking at double that from Morgan.

Thanks for the heads up.

motion pro also makes one (I bought a few years back) that you can pick up from Dennis Kirk & most other bike or tool outlets.

I bought a long craftsman phillips screwdriver, put it in a vice to my desired angle length(approx 1/2 inch) heated it up with a propane torch and bent it 90 degrees. Much cheaper. Work great

I'm lost. I think you've misunderstood the purpose of the tool. The mixture screws are slotted, not philips and there isn't enough room in there to turn them with the tool you've described.
