F1 uses the previous type carbs as far as I know and likely common to the K6 in design, F2 is PD type carbs and will need specific cables which I think are common to that and K7.
That motor looks really nice,  very good looking work on the whole bike.

Gunkote I think is from a company called Kalgard which specialised in US military equipment protective coatings, I know they did some pretty impressively specified coatings and also made one of the best chainlubes I've ever come across "Chainkote" be interesting to see how the carb's finish works out.
