All good advice so far. If you take the carb out again you may want to check and see if the overflow tube is cracked. This can be heard to see and would cause just what you describe.

Well you jacked the thread from the OP but I am feeling charitable.

It sounds like your bike has an air leak somewhere in front of the carb. Air leaks in and causes it to rev out.
