David13 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I guess a week or so ago Grok got his situation settled and started selling again. Or taking orders, or ... And he may be sold out already. In any case, his info and order thread is still there on advrider with current posts. I saw quite a few 'ordered' posts, but didn't look for any 'received' ones as yet. I have one. And a whole lot of people swear they are the best ever. I finally figured out how to use mine. It is nice. dc Grok is over there in Folsom. The city, not the prison. Link to comment

David13 Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 Don You are probably right, tho' I think others have asked it on advrider and escaped only mildly scathed. Probably, if you don't know what one is, you don't want one. They are for those what do their own work. In fact I am an absolute purist, and will let no one touch (work on) my bike. I do all my own work. And it's a very sweet tool. dc I count 23 posts that say order placed. No telling how many have actually ordered. Here's the link. Order first page. Read last (page 50, or more). http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=701625 Link to comment
Alfred02 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Got mine for about 9 months or so. If you can't use that device...don't pick up a spanner. It's that simple to use. Link to comment

I have the standard issue Red Neck model Mostly cause I'm too cheap to pay someone else to do my wrenching Don J Link to comment
David13 Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 Don All the rednecks I know, including myself, have thrown those old contraptions out, and obtained the Harmonizer. Because we are way too cheap to have anyone else work on our bikes; but, we want it done right. dc Link to comment

Bone simple, very accurate, inexpensive, foolproof, what’s not to like? How much did you Harmonizer cost vs. the $7 it takes to build a monometer? Simple solutions for simple problems = success. As a long time manometer user, having synced many a bike over many years, I think I’m insulted. Link to comment
CoarsegoldKid Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Maybe the coffee hasn't kicked in but I can't seem to find the ordering site. My Mercury meter seems to have air bubbles in the lines that I can't remove so I thought I'd check this out. Link to comment
Rocer Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Me too! - insulted that is But I see Mr. Duck's manometer is optioned up. I like the zip tie handle bar hanger. Now why didn't I think of that? I even have the same scratch marks on the tupperware.

roger 04 rt Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I've had a Twinmax for a couple seasons and it works fine. But I decided to give the Harmonizer a try. It's a terrific product. Easy and intuitive to use with an RPM readout as part of the balancing display. Where the Twinmax needle wiggles at low rpm, the Harmonizer is steady. My Twinmax is in the Fleamarket at a good price for anyone interested. Link to comment
