Welcome to the group Dean, you can get new turn signal stems on JC Whitney fairly cheap. They work great for the rear two-wire signals, but can be a bit tight for the front 3wire signals since the inside diameter isn't quite as wide as the OEM ones. I was able to open them a bit with a drill though and got them to work. As for your carbs, where are they leaking from? Either way, after sitting that long, it'd be a good idea to take them off the bike and clean them. You can find plenty about that on old posts on the group, plus Paul has a ton of carb links on his site http://www.hondanighthawks.net/carbhelp.htm.
