"Cleaned carbs" can mean different things to different people. The compression check suggests everything is ok mechanically, so fuel is the most likely culprit. I'd run with embee on this if I were you, his logic is always very sound, and he knows a thing or two about motors and SVs.

If you're uncertain a simple check can be to substitute in a known good bank of carbs from a clean running bike. If the problem persists (and the other checks mentioned by embee don't turn up anything obvious) report back
