Just wondering if anyone may have an extra float valve laying around. My bike was leaking gas out of the #1 carb. I pulled the carbs and found that the float valve is worn down. If anyone's got an extra I'd be more than happy to buy it. I'm just ready to get this bike back on the road. I appreciate any help.

 Cycle parts nation has them for $17.43 each.  I haven't personally used this site, but it looks like a good place to get a new oem part; here is the link to the part.  I'm sure you can get by with just changing out the one that's giving you troubles, but if it was me I'd assume that the other three were worn about the same and replace them all at the same time, along with the floats.

Yeah I was thinking that they all might be worn but I checked them and only the 1 is bad. I know Bike Bandit sells them individually, I may have to take that route. Thanks for the link.
