Its Not only jets that need to be cleaned. The passageways as well as the emulsion tubes. I thought all my carbs were clean until i punched out the emulsion tubes and this one was not the worst of the 4.

I took the carbs out, the left and the right were clogged... i put them back in the bike.... i absolutely  hate pulling  carbs! 
Anyways, im going to bed ...in the morning ill fire it up and see what  happens.

Lil pissed off....its still smoking, the rpms are really high and it dies when  i give it gas. I noticed it was leaking gas out the  right side of carb now. Im just upset now... that was a #$%* to take out and now put in... now i pull them  back out?

Don't do it half ass or you will be pulling the carbs again. Clean everything. Then clean all the holes in the actual carbs. If you can, punch out the emulsion tubes and clean them. Set the float height and make sure none of your overflow tubes are cracked. Then bench sync them. Also your bike will never idle right until you sync the carbs.

I agree with FFJ, you have them off, do EVERYTHING you can.  This is a game of patience and details.  You have a great start on a really nice machine, Your aesthetics are solid so far but think about this as priority list.

Could be a million things. Have you synced the carbs? Until you have diagnosing issues is almost pointless.
