I've had my carbs off completely 3 previous times. I changed the stock screws to Brent's allen head screws when I installed the Freak. I pulled the gas tank when I change the needles just to make it easier. If I had a pair of 90 degree needle nose pliers and one of them fancy 90 degree allen screw things I probably would have left the tank on and tried to change the main jets too, before heading to the NE rally. Changing back to stock needle with 1 shim didn't seem to hurt the performance any, but it sure helped my mileage, back to the low forties. If anyone has a suggest on a tool to handle the allen screws w/ washes that you can't seen when the carb are in place, I am all ears.
