RVF rubbers available from rick, the bolt kit replaces all the crappy crosshead screws with nice 3mm allen key stainless bolts, it'll make putting them back together and taking them apart again a much nicer experience.
No need to jump on the carbs with the RVF rubbers, just grease them up a bit and they almost fall in. i find the best way is to loosen the lower rubber clips aswell then do them up with the carbs in place just make sure all the clamps are easy to get to before putting the carbs on.
Id order the jets you need now, saves having to wait putting them back together plus your know whats in there is right, current jets could be worn/drilled etc. Unlikely but when i work on carbs i dont wanna be taking the fuckers apart more times than i have to.
