The left carb is hissing when I give it throttle and the bike doesn't fire on that side until I reach 3/4 throttle. Even then it is really rough and back fires a lot. I have taken the carb of and cleaned it twice with no improvement.

My suspicion is that it has to be the pilot circuit that is dirty. However, I did just clean the pilot jet and blew out the pilot circuit. Any thoughts?
 
I'd start looking for an air leak. spray carb cleaner with the straw on, while it's running. You'll know when you find the leak.....
