ok I found the secret to getting the carbs off and on on the Ninja !
I put a big hunkin screwdriver between the carbs at the air box plastic.... and pried against the frame to move the airbox back.... no biggy we all do that right ? well I got to thinkin how about I just use a ratchet strap and HOLD that big screwdriver there so I don't have to fight it moving back and limiting the little room I have....
and that really worked great it moved the airbox back far enough that I had 1/2" between the carbs completely out of their boots and the air box boots.... that was by far the easiest carb removal I've done on this bike !!!!!!!!!!!!!
here is a pic....
I had the carbs out in 10 minutes removed one shim on each needle ( one at a time)
and then put in the #40 pilot jets..... set the air screws to 2 3/4 turns out on each and left them there as I know I will have to fine tune the air screws....
......
