+1 on that. You may have switched around the carbs.

The early GT750s with VM have 2 right & 1 left carb. A right carb is used in the middle.

For the original locations, look at the carb part # stamped on the flat surface near the choke. It ends with “L”, “M”, or “R”. The middle & right carbs had slightly different jetting so the part #s are different.
BAS (Bike Acquisition Syndrome) - too many bikes but have room for more

GT750 2x75
GT550 72 & 75
GT380 72
T500 69 project & 73 project

On the stock BS40 carbs the mixture screw for the right carb is on the right side of the carb.
