Was the bike running before you rebuild the carbs??
How long since the bike has run?
More info needed.

I would start with all the basics:
- Cold compression above 140 psi
- Working ignition system (LEFT coil leads to 1+4, RH to 2+3)
- Clean/dry plugs
- Fuel levels correct in carb and stay stable (check with clear plastic tubing)
- use a open syringe/remote tank to feed engine whilst testing NOT the fuel tank
- Throttle's correctly snchro'd and the idle angle PERFECTLY set. Start at around 1mm or very slightly less
- New or very good battery fully charged

If it started before it will start again! If all the above fails - treble check the carbs are 100%.
