Default Bandit 600 carb slides - question

One more question... before I dig back in...

When I turn the throttle on my 1997 Bandit 600, I see the linkages on the carbs moving, but I do not see the slides in the carbs going up... I am missing something here. Should they not go up when I am wide open on the throttle. The carbs have a diaphram so maybe its different than my Rotax go kart which just moves the slide up when I step on the pedal.

thanks, Marc
