    basically.. when the bikes warm.. and u ride it.. come to a stop and the idle is higher than normal..

    when its idleing higher.. and i use the choke.. then let the choke off.. the idle dies down to normal??

    can get my head round it :confused:

    cheers

    thats why you should set the idle when the engine is warm

    get it warm... (go for a ride) then wind it in half a turn at idle.. quickly go to full throttle then back to idle position and see if the revs drop.. there will always be a slight delay with a 2 stroke but you want it to settle. if it makes it worse go out a full turn (half out from original setting) if it makes it better keep going. dsimple as that really. if it bogs as you try to throttle quickly it deffo needs winding out on most carbs (some screws work in reverse)
