Very nice Tricky.. Well done.

I would definitely check for air leaks on the exhaust before hauling the carbs apart, and check plug colour too.

I can't quite make out from the resolution of the photo what it says on the side panel, but I think you may have an "S" model there.
It has the later type remote reservoirs but I can't make out if it has the later Goldline callipers to go with them... Didn't think they were fitted till 2000?
Look's like they could be adjustable Showas too?
If it is an "S" it might have cast iron front discs and also a floating rear brake calliper, possibly an Ohlins on the back too.

Another little clue that it might be an "S" is the rubber covered footrests.
