Default step by step carb removal and rejet

Does this exist somewhere? I would like to see exactly how it done so when my parts come in I know what to do. Would really like to see pics and descriptions.

This one's not bad. A few type-Os to be careful of.

Honestly, the few write-ups that are around help a little bit and are okay, but it really isn't that hard to begin with.

Take the seat, shrouds and tank off. Unplug the wiring harness to the carb, unhook the throttle cables, undo the two rubber boot clamps and out it comes through the top of the frame. I guess there are a couple of vacuum lines ( which I have long since plugged ) you might have to unhook. It is a very straight forward job. Meaning you can see what needs to be done to get it out.

Once out, the top cover on the carb houses your needle and spring, and the bottom cover houses your jets and fuel mixture screw.

Actually getting the carb back in was the hardest part for me. The tight clearances and rubber boots tend to get in the way. Just take your time, it might take a couple of attempts, and it will go back together.

After pulling mine a few times, I can go from completely assembled to the carb sitting on my workbench in 15 minutes.
