'78 CT70 Carb Rebuild

The jets in my CT seem to keep getting clogged. My bike will run great for weeks then will shut down in the middle of a ride and I will have to get a tow back to the house. Usually I take the carb apart and clean out the jets and the bike seems to run good again. Is this condition something that is abnormal? Where is a good place to get new jets and seals for my carb? wondering if putting an inline fuel filter would be beneficial? Any input would be appreciated. thanks!
 
Seriously, I'd install inline fuel filters...and clean the inside of the tank. Pump gas is full of crap anymore. Joking aside, I seal my tanks with KREEM sealer, which is white. Against that background, dirt is easy to see and the sheer quantity is horrifying. Fortunately, it's easy to run a small tank dry, then swab-out the cubic hectares of garbage with paper towel, followed by a shot of compressed air.
