Won't start without spraying gas into intake/carbs

I have an 01 banshee with toomey t6 exhaust and k&n intake I bought a few months ago. When I got it, I did a carb deep cleaning and rebuild, I also used the toomey perfect jet kit. It ran awesome and I did 3+ hour ride each weekend, but I noticed the next day it was hard to start. Fast forward and now if it sits more than a day, I need to spray pre-mix/gas into the intake. Pilots are 1.5 turns out, the slides are perfectly in sync and it runs great once started and warm. I checked the choke tube and it exists and is intact. Any ideas?

Thanks for all the replies. I have been very busy at work, but I am finally back at trying to get this thing sorted out. This problem has escalated into the left cylinder firing for about 10 seconds and then stopping while the right is fine. This prompted me to finally do a compression check on both cylinders and I got 135-140 on both. I then pulled the carbs again and everything appears to be in order. I am stumped because it was running fine and after a long ride all of this started. Any more ideas with this new info?
