1. You did tighten the needle valve seat retaining screws when you changed them?
2.Float height for 2000 on models should be 3.5mm above float chamber mating surface ( Its 4.5mm on earlier models) 2000 on carbs are marked 5DM1 01
Earlier models are 5DM1 00.
Only mention this in case carbs have been replaced by previous owner. I know its a bit of a long shot but in diagnosing faults you cant assume anything. :eek
Dont mean to teach anyone to suck eggs but it seems you have ruled out a lot of the obvious things mentioned by others. Good luck!
1. Of course I did and last time I opened the carbs I took the floats out and checked if the needle valve seats were sitting in it's place properly
2. According to the markings on the side these are the correct carbs but it's true, you can't assume anything when you buy a used bike without any history at all
