not too sure about rebuild but it is burning a bit of oil.
I have only owned it for about a year. The owner before me ripped out the old carb and all the emission controls and slapped a new carb on. about 195miles

The burning oil will give you the high HC readings.
Try Castrol "10W-40 Deisel" (it's a bit better than thier 20W-50), and hope that slows it down a bit.
The CO is "usually" the cat worn out. (I think).
Is the "new" carb still a Mikuni, or did they go with a Weber/Etc ?
