What you've described there doesn't sound too hideous Stu, apart from the 3 goes initially. Are the plugs in good condidiotn? As somebody said earlier, a good service sounds as though its in order, since you've just got it, and will probably improve things no end. (and do it before you get into taking the carbs off, its a much easier option and should be done anyway 
)
cover the cracks in your carb rubbers with water, and start the bike - if there's a problem, you'll see the water bubbling. The rubber is very thick, and the cracks have to be immesne before they go through.
