There is a thread here in the Tips and tricks section on rebuilding the CV carbs like your bike has. If I remember correctly there should be a picture there with the locations of all the parts listed on it. That might be of more help then me trying to explain it. Especially since I refuse to work on those carbs.

Oh, they aren't so bad! If you're a sadist...

But really, if the bike is all stock, they do just fine. Just don't ever,never,ever, stray away from the factory airbox and filter.

Here's the link to the carb stuff brosef

Sounds like you've got the fuel supply connected to the carb bowl vents. Since there's no valve in there the fuel will just flood everything. The fuel supply should be connected to the brass tee between carbs 1 & 2. The vent should just have a tube connected venting to the atmosphere. I lay mine on top of the airbox.
