The carbs on my sons '82 750k have no means of adjusting the floats.
The entire float assembles are made of plastic.There are no adjustment tabs like shown in the manuals!

i replaced the old float needles with new ones.After assembly,gas was flowing out of the bowl overflow tubes.Upon further inspection,the floats were almost bottomed out with the carbs inverted.The float heights were way below the .610" spec.
The new float needles were replaced with new ones from another kit.After the assembly,the float heights were more within the spec.Tried to start the bike but seems like its not getting fuel.No signs of fuel in the cylinder that I checked,the plug was dry.

I'm stumped,any suggestions?
Thanks.
