Important things to do for a bike that has been sitting for a while?

Well I picked up my ZX50 the other day.  It is a 2000 model with just under 2,000 miles on the odometer, and has not seen much action at all for the past few years. 

The engine seems to run well, but the belt snapped within the first 10 miles of riding it.  I took apart the transmission to find that the rollers had a bunch of flat spots, so I replaced that along with the variator (OEM).

What else should I check/replace?

CHANGE the cdi unit, spark plug, drain the gas put new gaS . CHECK oil levels

I changed my CDI, Plug, Coil and gas also.
I pulled my gas tank off for further inspection due to a tad of flaky rust bein near the top of the tank. I wanted to make sure one of those particles was not going to clog my jets or filters.

Sounds good.  Where can I get a new CDI?

I also noticed a couple cracks in my tire right around the rim.  The tread is great, but I don't want a catastrophic blowout.  Is this OK?

If you want an Original equipment cdi you can have your local motorcycle shop order it or you can call these guys if your in the U.S, I just posted something around here somewhere as far as the cost, i think it was around 50 bucks but thats pretty steep.

as far as the tire NO, any cracks can mean dryrot get a new tire/tyre the only thing between your life and the road is your tires.
( if they are very tiny you might get away with it for a few but it can be dangerous if they are deeper cracks than they appear.)
