This is what I have to do. My '04 is just too tight otherwise. I usually remove the tank too.
As far as the spring, I hold it back with my fingers from over the top of the cap and with the same hand remove the cable end from the slide. No need for tools, that sounds harder.
You really don't need to remove the carb to change the jetting. You can just rotate it in place and change them. Two things. 1, be careful of dirt so make sure the bike is clean and put a clean rag in the top of the carb. 2, be careful that the float pin doesn't fall out and get lost. BTW you will need to remove the chain guard too.
