FWIW, I'm fairly mechanical and I had to clean my carbs 3 times before the bikes finally started running. Just squirting some carb cleaner in them is not cleaning them, you need to disassemble them and make sure all the passage ways are clear, and you need to make sure all the little holes in the jets are clear.
