Hit and miss. Lots of problems have been caused by using those kits.
Gaskets and float needle are often okay... other parts like the jets they provide are of dubious calibration. Newer AT/CT versions don't seem to have correct gaskets sometimes.... check photos carefully.
Unless torn or badly damaged... OEM bowl gaskets can be reused. If needle and seat is bad, new Mikuni parts are readily available from places like Niche Cycle or Yamaha. For jets, again, genuine Mikuni but rarely "need" replacing.
O-ring on jet setter, best is Mikuni/Yamaha... (this o-ring is the only thing that usually "needs" replacing.)

Yes, item 5 is the O-ring MarkT is referring too. If you have a gravel driveway, I recommend you buy two.
