That's right. Man, try to read what your warranty says, not what your dealer does!! The warranty covers everything, except things that wear out in normal use (chains, light bulbs, brake pads, brake rotors etc.). And to me, carbs doesn't belong in these. Don't pay for those!

Plugs, oil and filter $182!!! That's crazy! They dealer added their work fee on that bill. And still to me, you shouldn't have paid anything for this whole thing. Cause you bought the 650 Prarie with a warranty and the warranty covers every manufacture fault! And leaking carbs sure is included in these faults.

So you had gas in the crankcase? That means, that gas has circulated through every bearing inside the engine. In worst case, there will be an engine overhaul later on in the future... Or did your dealer say anything about this fact?
