Dripping gas and WOT gurgle

[CombatYoga]

I'll say up front I don't think these 2 issues are related. Perhaps I'm wrong.

My bike has started dripping gas when it's sitting on the stand.
From my reading on this forum it sounds like I need to check the float height and also the seal on the float needle. Does that sound right?

She also has a pretty good gurgle at WOT. Do I need to look at my main jet to try to clear that up? My dealer put a JD Jetting Kit in it for sealevel as I live in central Texas. Other than that I'm not sure what main jet is in it.

I had a drip of fuel on my carb,one of the phillips head screws @ the bowl was alittle striped out,not allowing screw to tighten enough,switched them out to allen head bolts now.Dont know about the wot issue.

I'd do the float first, and ride to see if you got 2 birds with one stone.

If there was no leakings in past I would not touch the level.
Rather I would change the needle valve.
