What would removing emissions hardware and installing reed blockoff plates do for me? Would I notice any significant gains?

By ''significant gains'', I'll assume you mean horsepower. Then the answer is a resounding ''NO.''

What you WILL notice, when combined with Ken's float bowl mod, is a VERY crisp, responsive and correctly jetted motorcycle.

if I do the float bowl mod, I have to completely rejet, right? All of that stuff together gives no additional power, just better throttle response?
