" The left carb is wedged between the sidecar and the bike. Getting to it requires the skills of a contortionist India-rubber keyhole surgeon, a long-handled screwdriver and patience."

I had mine off yesterday. A two minute job. Perhaps he exaggerates a bit.

Half way home from work bike stops with fuel pissing out of left hand carb overfow. A small piece of dirt got stuck in needle valve. 30 minutes later carb cleaned and on the way again.

He is correct
