My 86 VFR700f was leaking fuel and I thought from the bottom. So I remove the carbs and work my way up with bowl gaskets, float valves and each time I remounted them the leak was worse that before. It did turn out to be the o-rings on the plastic T fittings that feed the carbs. Go to home depot and buy a package of 10 1/2 OD black rubber o-rings. Fit them on the tubes and reassemble and I bet you leak disappears like mine did. And you will have 6 o-rings left over from your $1.79 purchase.
