Default wow, something def wrong with carbs..

ive come to the conclusion that almost every time now i cant get it started because its flooded...it takes forever to finally turn over...well anyways today i was in the bush riding with a buddy and all of a sudden it just sputtered and stalled...i put it into reserve hoping the tank was almost empty, no luck...then hes like "dude cant u smell that?" so then i start snooping around and then saw the 2 overflow tubes gushing out gas like mad...somethings definitely wrong with the carbs

anyone had similar problems or know whats wrong with them?

It could be from grit, or also one of my friends laid his motercycle over and then the float started getting stuck so if you have fliped it or something that could also be it.

If you haven't done any jetting in a while and this just happened. I would guess that the floats are stuck also. Maybe you should take that carb apart and clean it up good while you check the floats. Also a bottle of fuel injection cleaner in the gas tank won't hurt.
