    carbs leaking fuel out intake

    I raised the needles which is where the fuel seems to be leaking from into my pods. It happens to leak out of 1 and 2 carbs when the bike is in the side stand.
    Leaking inline fuel valve is my only thought?

    Do you mean you raised the float valve needles ( to lower fuel level in carb bowls) ? Maybe your petcock has failed and your floats can't hold back the pressure.
