hi ross19907...sounds like you have a good plan for your assembly process....as far as the oil,..you read opinions both ways on here,..but for myself, I figure, its only 1 qt,..I like to know its got good fresh, quality oil in it from the start..I use Shell Rotella T4 15W-40, as do many on here,.....in all my bikes I have had, for many, many years (also,..even though my original oil, on the stick, and in the site glass, looked pretty good,..it didnt look so good after I drained it out, in my drain pan...)
I did change the brake fluid also,...put in DOT 4,....but unlike the engine oil,..the brake fluid looked quite good,...I certainly wouldn't call changing that out a priority...
For the carb,..honestly,..its pretty good just as it comes...I am at 1000'...it rarely needs any choke at all cold start,...idles great,..and really is plenty good enough just as it is.
