Accelerator pump carbs

I saw on one of the posts that a member buys and sells carburettors, my Z1000 LTD is missing the linkage for the accelerator pump and vacuum shut off device, does anyone know if the bike can run reasonable without these?

KZ1000 LTD front turn signals

Been trolling on Johnnys vintage motorcycles, noticed how nice a LTD looks when turn signals are repositioned either side of headlamp, looks straight forward but does anyone have any knowledge regarding parts needed or done this mod?
Thanks in advance
