I used one on my Z1 and it was pretty effective..that said I could easily get it to a similar setting tuning it by ear..and yes it does only check the mixture at idle..

Ive just set the carbs on my Z1300 with a colortune.
found it very easy to use.
if it cant be fixed with a hammer then it must be an electrical fault.
