What do you reckon?

Oh and sorry for the thread revival!
That's how the idle adjustment is on my Keihin FCR carbs, a small plastic knob hangs out (Ooer Mrs!) of each side of the bike and it makes idle adjustment simple even whilst on the bike.

Obviously with split-single carbs it'll upset the balance unless you adjust both by the same amount but the idea is great.

You can see said RH side knob in this pic, resting on the belt guard;
