    It's possible to take any shortcuts you want. Whether or not you'll achieve the desired result is a different story.

    Start a new thread of your very own, and we'll be happy to help. You're probably going to find out that you've got a bit more to do than just cleaning your enrichment wells. When did you last check your valve clearances?

    you could take the outside bowls off while on the bike, the inner ones would be really tight. if you found a screw you couldn't get out, your pulling the rack anyhow.
    when you order from Chacal, tell him what you have and what your doing and he may have advice on something you didn't know you needed to get the job done, that might save you time and money in the long run.

    I know this sounds simple, but was overlooked by me.
    same kind of situation, bike sat, was resurected, and ran, then had issues develop. the culpret was the mounging gaskets for the carburator mounts. small paper that goes between the rubber carb mounts and the intake mount. the only gasket that was "solid" was the one on the fuel vacume draw for the pet cock. once it got running it was fine. Not enough draw to pull enough air fuel into the other carbs

    Mine was exactly the same... Clear the enrichment wells in the carb bowl with a needle or small wire and do the valve check.. Completely brought my starter fluid sucking 750 back to life!
