These look like the carbs on my CM400's. If has been a few years now, but I think those were like plastic fillers to cover maybe a hole in there. Again, it has been a while maybe someone can confirm.

My 77 Goldwing CV carbs has something similar to this. The plate and filter(what I would call it) covers a couple of the carb jets.

Remove the cover and gasket to access the air bleed jets.
