that's about what I used but the screw was too hard to turn with the finger tips so I wrapped the screwdriver bit with a few layers of black tape, enough to fit in a 1/2" nut and then put the nut in a vice and crushed it onto the screw driver bit.... ( after I made sure the screw driver bit fit in the tiny hole which it didn't, so I had to grind it a bit...)
then I could get under the carb and turn the screw.... but that was with the fairings ( sides) off .... not with them on, and the engine cold
with the engine even partly warm it would be a painful endeavor !
....
so I take it there is no way, you have to remove the side fairings AURGH !
....
how about Mods to make the fairings easy to get off and on ? LOL
