Pull the needle and seat and blow it out with air. Even a very small spec of dirt or something can hold it open and let fuel through.

I had the same issue with the same carb. problem was it had the wrong metering block gaskets. the incorrect gasket had a small hole that wasn't suppose to be there (3 circuit carb ). would seap over night and empty the bowl . needle an seat can also do it if there is something in it

if its a 650 . the metering block gaskets should have a circle cutout for the power valve. not the Dshape cutout .
