Default New Bike, new to me at least

Hello, I am new to this forum. I just acquired a 1979 Suzuki GS750L. It has sat for the past 2 years or so and still has old gas in it. Other than cleaning out the tank and the carbs, I think it will then at least be rideable. My plan then is to spend the winter rebuilding/restoring it from the bottom up. I have a couple questions:

1 - Any recommendations or suggestions for what to use or how to go about cleaning out the gastank (there is gummed up gas in the bottom) and cleaning the carbs?
2 - Under the suzuki forum, which sub-forum does a 1979 GS750L belong?
3 - Is there anywhere I can find a list of common problems and issues for a 79 GS750L?

Thanks very much!
