2-4mm below bottom edge of carb where the floatbowl connects.
In other words, 2-4mm below floatbowl gasket.
Good Luck!

On my B2, I have Mikuni VM26 carbs. Your carbs look similar, except for the float bowl drain.

You probably have 26's on it. The ones pictured are 29's but I think they have the same float height.
