I fired it up about a week ago when it was over 100 degrees here, it fired right up and ran like a top ...if I do that when it's cold I have to baby it for 10 minutes !!!! and it definitely will not start without the choke !
....so something is still dirty in the pilot circuit they are very hard to get clean in a ninja carb.... I did get a ultrasonic cleaner but I haven't had to pull the carbs off sense LOL

LOL! It’s an open question.
Not sure if you saw the reply above it with video of the petcock but, yeah, it’s just a huge cavity after removing the bulk of the corrosion.
Regarding the clear fluid in the clutch cover/oil fill port: I smelled it and it’s definitely gas. Looks clean so I guess it’s still stable but seeing what it did to the aluminum parts of the fuel door and petcock I expect similar damage in the carbs. Still haven’t got to it.
