Might be fuel leaking from overflow. Perhaps the float valve is stuck or damaged, allowing the float bowl to overfill. Slight chance tapping on side of carb may seat the valve. If not, it will probably have to either be set, or replaced. Could possibly have some "gunk" stuck in the valve seat from the cleaning. It only takes a tiny speck of debris to hold the valve open, causing flooding. Another possible cause is that during the cleaning, the tab that adjusts the level of the float valve got bumped, changing the level.
Always turn the fuel petcock off when your not riding the bike.The cocks leak and the fuel flows through the carb. through the intake, into the cylinder, past the rings and into the crank. This is possible death to your top end. The fuel washes away the oil on the cylinder wall !
I would do an oil change then let the bike run for a little while then do another oil change.This will help get the fuel out of the crank.Then another change after your next ride.I would even put a little extra oil with your fuel mix to help lube that cylinder and maybe smootout the idle. Dont run the bike to hard for a while,let the oil clean up the cylinder.(I hope) You may have scorched the piston and cylinder walls with the fuel in the oil.
This is nomal for a DRZ 125 because of the short piston skirt. You get much the same annoying sound on the 250/400's also, don't stress, thats just how it is.
