After a year a miscellaneous down time with stator & electrical gremlins, the time sitting has taken its toll on my fueling system.  My '99 is missing on 1 cylinder, I've done the heavy dose of cleaner into the tank a few times and even direct injecting it into the carb bowl with no real help.  So I think its time to pull the carbs and give them a good cleaning.  With that, I have a few questions

1.  Anyone done the Ivan's Performance Kit (Ivan's XVZ1300)?  I know his fuel injection re-maps are well regarded, and since I'm already in there it might not be a bad idea since I have K&N filters & Harley SE Mufflers that could probably use a slight boost in fueling.  

2.  I know the gaskets are supposed to be reusable, but I question 25yr old rubber parts coming apart nicely.  I did find Service Kits available (XVZ1300 Mikuni Service Kit) and while the DellOrtoShop shows US, its all based off a Netherlands company.  Does anyone have known good place to buy genuine (not chinesium) parts?

I've already pulled compression, checked spark & changed plugs and narrowed it down to a fuel delivery issue before posing the question for parts here.
