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&qid=1501077672&sr=8-2&keywords=visu+filter
