Running a little rich - carb float?
Pardon the newbieness of this post, I'm not a carb guy. 350 has been running rich on an Amal carb, but I've just been living with it for lack of time. The other day I rode to a local store, turned off the petcocks and parked. When I restarted I forgot to turn on the gas, so I was running on the gas ...

Electronic ignition?
