91 VFR 750 gas leak from carburator????

I see it dripping right off the carb, one drop about every 45 seconds, it did this before and i took it all apart and cleaned it, and it went away. Seems like this happens after my bike sits for a month or two waiting to be fixed.
Anyone know why??? or what may fix this???

 

Did you use new orings, or existing?

 

Leaks

Ditto the above plus check float level, either stuck or misadjusted too high.

I used the existing orings, they looked like they were in good shape, its probably worth replacing though. How would i tell if the float level is too high?

 

VERY typical storage problems

fuel dripping would be one sign
or not running right on one cylinder

in hotter storage regions the float bowl gaskets can shrink and dry, causing slow leaks on initial running, but exposure to fresh fuel and full engine heat usually fixes the leak......

also caused by sticky floats or dirty float valves, common if there is rust in the fuel tank.

sometimes clears up with some use.
