Thats exactly what mine was like. I'd be checking the choke plungers before I did anything else if I was you.

You'll need to prop the tank off, remove the airbox and then remove the carbs, theres a screw on the front and a seperate one of the rear carb that you'll need to undo, watch for the springs when you undo them ( if you can mine were seized solid with rust ) clean them off ( I used WD40 and a cloth ) and then make sure they slide freely in the chamber and then refit and it should sort your problem out.

If you can get hold of a Haynes manual it'll make life easier. As the process is quite well described in there and theres lot of pictures to help you when or if you get stuck ( I did several times )
