A small tip I learned from a bloke a while ago, let's you check the general health of your Diaphragms without needing to take the carb apart. Should be universal to all CV Carburettors.
I have a set on my CB400 SF which have been giving me nightmares since I took the bike in to have the carbs balanced. This little trick should help troubleshoot the vacuum system.
Thanks for the video, I think mine is stuffed. It has slight resistance halfway up but not significant resistance and I can hear air when I push it the rest of the way. (Suzuki vz800 marauder) cleaned carbies, new jets but won’t run on the (front) carby I tested with your method.
Great tip buddy I knew there had to be a way to do that Thanks !

This doesent work on every carb right? Two carbs i tried this on both go up without resistance but they run normal on the road.
It is specific to the CV carbs.
Very right brother, mine new out the box...no resistance
