Carb rebuild or clean?

Thanks - I took the tank out yesterday and sure enough about a silver dollar size amount of rust particles came out. I'll treat tank soon and definitely try the "shotgun" and "peashooter" method before attempting the carb rebuild. That carb rebuild X 4 looks a bit daunting to say the least?!

After getting her feeling good again -- I was thinking of a few mods possibly. Nothing major -- is there any recommended mods that increase performance and/or give the bike some better sound w/out spending crazy $$? Thanks again

That sounds good -- Do you have to add "jet kit"? or can you just do pipe mod? I've stayed away from messing w/ the carbs - always thought it might be a hassle and I might mess something up. Is it difficult to add a "stage or jet kit" - not sure if those are the same? and how much does that normally cost in parts. Thanks!
