Does anyone know what vacuum range the gauges should be. How high is the vacuum on this bike 15PSI ?
Thanks again

As I recall mine were in the 10 inHg range certainly not very high on the gauges (davida)
If everything is in order then your aim is just to balance the gauges rather than measure an actual vac level. Signs of trouble are things like one needle steady and the other trembling. (I am assuming that while they were off you set the throttles to more or less balanced by eye)
