the only problem is that stopping at the side stand loses gasoline through the carburetor and has a complete set of gaskets and seals . . . .
Handsome bike!
Is gasoline escaping through an overflow hose?
Good Fortune!

An overflow often results from failure of a float valve to close (for whatever reason).
When a freshly reassembled carb leaks through the overflow circuit, it sometimes helps the float valve to fully close by rapping smartly against the carb bowl with the plastic handle of a large screwdriver. Tap-tap-tap . . . tap-tap-tap.
Can try this method with the engine not running, and again with the engine running at idle speed.
Good Fortune!
