The throttle seems slow to respond when idle screw is backed OUT in order to bring rpms down to the 1200/1400ths…. It even shuts down the bike when reved at these low rpms.
So to keep it running I turn the idle screw IN .25 to .50 turn clockwise. I keep this setting to start the bike too.


Not sure you are adjusting the idle with the correct screw
