Yes I agree with pretzels logic, Two of your floats are not set right. Either the tang is not closing the main fuel needle and your bowls are overflowing out the tubes. Or your main fuel needles are sticking open. You did set the float levels at 23mm right? Also as he said screw in your idle speed screws all the way in and back them out 1 1/2 turns, that a good starting point. Lastly with your air filters off check to make sure the carb slides are closing all the way. And make sure you put the slide in aligned with the notch on the slide and the pin in the carb body. Check the throttle cables and return springs for correct "feel". 6000 rpm wow, hope you shut it down quick?
