That time I was wrenching on the reactor on the USS Nimitz the floats would rise with the fuel level?
Hahaha .... Yes, especially then!

I will deff try that man. Open for anything. Also my bike stumbles bad right off of idle in every gear, should I bump my needles up a notch?
Your float valve(s) is(are) leaking, pure and simple.the carbs still slowly flooding when the bikes off
Doesn't matter where you bought them, or how new they are, you have a leaking float valve(s).
Fail-safe way of bench testing float valves:
Carbs upside-down on bench. Float bowls removed. Fuel cross-over tube connecting the two carbs attached. Float valve seat gaskets (washers) installed, float valve seats screwed in tight. Float valve needle installed. Floats and hinges do NOT need to be installed.
Plug one fuel inlet.
Attach a piece of tube (18" is good) to the other fuel inlet. Put other end in your mouth, and suck until you get a good vacuum, then "hold" the vacuum with the tip of your tongue. Vacuum should hold "forever." If tube slips off of your tongue, you have a bad float valve. Remove the cross-over tube, plug the cross-over nipple, and repeat to discover which valve is bad (or both).
This is 100% reliable. If you don't discover a leaking float valve, I will give you my bike.
