Pulling Mikuni Carburators off an XS650

Remove filters, unhook throttle and choke cables, loosen carb boot clamps, pull gas line (and plug with bolt), pull carb off carb boots, remove carb boots, slide out carbs.  Now the fun part.... Made sure I had a fresh set of pliers and a set of replacement carb screws handy.  Expecting that every screw on this carb would be frozen/overtightened/stuck like hell.  They were.  Got a can of Silicone spray and some Carb Cleaner.  Hooked up the air compressor.  Time to work...
