Could be many things happening, but what have you done to this point with the carbs so we know where to go....

Here's what I found after reassembling the bike. The previous owner decided at some point to remove one of the throttle cables so the spring on the throttle linkage was the only thing holding the throttle plates closed. I ended up playing with the throttle linkages while the bike was running and managed to get the bike to hover around 1000 rpm but it kept steadily rising to 2000 if I released the preasure on the throttle linkage. Still having the stalling issue when I lean the bike over, I'll see if I cant work some more on it tomorrow.

Thanks for the help so far! Its given me motivation to continue to work on this.
The return cable missing shouldn't inhibit closing of the throttle blades freely.
Dirty bellcrank and associated linkage, dirty cable and/or how it is routed could.
The bellcrank spring provides for plenty of force to return closed.
Remove the pullxcable and service it. Reinstall it and try...
