Ok so i got the bowls off and sure enough there was crap in the needle valves. I drained the tank and found more crap so I'm thinking a solution would be to put in a in line fuel filter. is there a special one i should get or does anyone have suggestions for one?

How do you get those off?  My gas has been overflowing but only if I leave my petcock on for a couple hours while the bike is parked.  I read about floats, but the way you phrase it you make it sound like I don't need to take apart the entire carbs.
