I'm not complaining. You can't really complain about any job being difficult when you don't have the correct tools to do it. You can complain about not having good/correct tools.
I found the perfect little screwdriver to tune this carb with and also discovered it works a treat on a couple of my Hondas too.

Wife's smartwatch died. I found I could replace the battery if I could take it apart. But it has the smallest torx screws I've ever seen and nothing I had would touch them. Instead of tossing it in favor of another $300 watch, I invested twelve bucks in a miniature screwdriver set so I could effect a proper repair. Just how I grew up I guess, in my family we don't toss things in the trash if we can repair them reasonably cheaply and easily.

Now spending money on a bike or car part because I think it's just better/cooler/prettier than the original...ummm, well...guilty there.
