Re: whos familiar with carbs here?

Yes, I am refering to the tips of the float needles, make sure they are creating a nice seal.

I would not get the Dynojet kit. Just buy the jets themselves, and shim the needles as needed...way cheaper. You can try a variety of sizes of jets for less than you'll pay for the kit- shop around, I think the jets for that bike should be less than $5 each.
Also, Dynojet tends to use needles with a different taper than stock, which makes it hard to compare your setup to the stock settings and to what other people are running on the same bike.

This site looks like it has some pretty good info and a pretty active forum:

I wasn't thinking about the fact that you have four carbs to synch, so the water trick wont work as easily as it does with just two.

This seems like a pretty good design though:
