I didn't take the carbs off the rail. And I cleaned up the leaking carb, dried it, and it is definitely the float bowl o-ring. Thanks Nes. And everyone else who commented.

You should ungang the carbs and replace ALL the O-rings.

I would but nothing else is leaking what so ever, and probably will only keep this bike for another summer, and sell it to get a kz1000 I want, then I'll go all out on that. And also heard if you ungang them, it can be a pain the get choke to function properly again. As long as this bike remains leak free, I'm not worried at this time. New head gasket fixed my other leak and poor compression, so bike is clean and straight. Just ordered all new float bowl o-rings though. If I ever have to pull carbs after this round, then I will spend more $ on all new o-rings. But for now, if it's not broke, not going to fix it. Best wishes. JJ
