Carb cleaner and compressed air if you have a compressor...
DO NOT do as I did and soak them in thinners... they were in the dustbin soon after as the thinners wrecked the insides of the carbs

I used some petrol / diesel mix a mate had left over from a tank drain. After external surfaces were clean i opened each one up in turn and cleaned
with carb cleaner.
I found them easy to do. There is surprisingly little to bike carbs.
