It's never easy to remove a set of carbs from a bike with the stock airbox intact. This bike was no exception, but I've had worse. Once I removed the battery and battery box, loosened up the airbox and removed the boots, the carbs were off in short order.
As shown in the pictures, the right carb had a white buildup and the left one was fairly clean. I'm very disappointed in myself because I somehow lost the float valve needle from the right carb! I searched tirelessly but could not find it. I began to think that maybe it was missing before I opened it, but my pictures prove otherwise; I screwed up! I left two of the bowl screws removed to remind myself not to install that carb without the needle.
