You can bench sync CV carbs so they're close enough for a test ride.  I've successfully done it twice so they were perfectly in sync.  I didn't need to make any adjustments when I hooked up my carbtune sync tool.

If you split the bank when you cleaned the carbs then there is a very real chance that the butterfles aren't lined up correctly.  If this happens they tend to stick and it will give you all sorts of problems.  Like Lucky and others say, they must close all the way.  They should snap shut.  If they don't you have to remove the carbs and loosen/retighten the support rail until they do.
