How do you know you have spark? Just curious. Try dribbling some gas onto the air filter or into the carb throat, if it fires then you have spark. It sounds as if you DO have spark, but it's good to verify.
From gently seated, how many turns out is the idle mixture screw?
Can you run a compression test? A compression tester from Harbor Freight is pretty affordable, and a good thing to have around anyhow. If the bike ran recently, it's probably not this but it can't hurt to check. Also, it's good to do every so often and keep a record of the compression declining with use, it can help you know when to do the piston/rings/hone.
I think your actual issue is fuel not getting through the carb. If it was heavily varnished, the carb cleanup might not have gotten everything out of it. After some running, it is possible some crap moved downstream and clogged a passage that was recently cleaned...it happens.

If it's any consolation, my first real carb cleaning was with a Yamaha Maxim 550 (four carbs) that sat with fuel in them for 11 years. I took those damn things off and cleaned them 14 times (I was learning), which meant that every time they went back on, they had to be tuned and synced. /rant

It appears from photos of your bike that you can loosen the carb boot clamps and simply rotate it 90deg. without taking it off of the bikes. Pull the slide out first, of course. Doing that should allow you to have the float bowl face you, and give direct access to the jets for at least a cursory look. If it's really bad, then take the carb off and clean it again.

Edit to add: if you have lots of time and don't feel like spending much effort, drain the gas tank and float bowl, then refill with 1/2 a can of carb cleaner (I recommend Seafoam or Berryman's B-12 Chemtool). Let that marinate for a couple of days, then add some gas or premix (whatever you run) and try to start it. That might be enough to at least loosen things up.

Also: are you running a fuel filter? I like these guys: https://www.amazon.com/Visu-Filter-Slimline-Compact-Body-Filter/dp/B003CJ95V6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1501077672&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=visu+filter
