Default Chain drive Marauder.

I've been on the site only a week or so and have been beating the search function to death looking for information on the early Marauders like the one I just got. I understand that the newest models will always be the majority, but I would like any input on the "old" chain driven, carburated bikes.
Without even firing the bike yet, I know I want to debaffle it, will this lean out the carb'ed model enough to need carb adjustments? (jets, needles) It also looks like the old bikes had smaller mufflers than the current ones. (already plotting fibrosleeve length ) I'm still excited about finding out so much about the bike and what I can do with it, I know I really need to just get out and ride. In summary, any input will be appreciated.
