    Funny idling?

    So I was out at glamis this weekend (Perfect conditions BTW) The first day bike was a champ,
    second day bike ran fine but the idle was iff,
    Either it would Idle real high and I checked the choke it was off, thought I mess with it, so I turned it and the rpm dropped, turn it off and right back up.
    So then we go for a ride come to a stop and its idling so low it wont stay on. So we finish our ride and get back to camp and its idling fine? Anyone have a guess as whats going on, meanwhile during the rides it had fullpower.
