What is the best way to drain the carbs? I have a problem with fuel coming out of the vent lines (2002 VMAX with 3998 miles). I believe I am only having a problem with one of the carbs. The one on the left rear side (while sitting on the bike). If anyone can help with this problem it would be greatly appreciated.................... :hmmm:
 
Sounds like either a stuck float or your float needle valve came undone from the float and is stuck open. Try a rubber mallet to the chamber cover, that works a lot of the times.

To drain carbs, there's a drain screw for each carb. The fuel drains out the side from those small rubber hoses.
