Probably bad float or stuck float valve. Easy for the float valves to stick.

Okay guys after a long time I finally got time to take the bike more apart and pull the carbs and rebuild them. I threw them back on today hooked the battery up turned the fuel. let it turn over and it fired after a second or two but then died. turned it again and fired straight up and ran. very rough of course but none the less I have an operational bike for $700. however after i turned it off I noticed one of my carbs leaking out of the little drain nipple. I did notice that my floats were in less that great shape, could those be it?
