    it could be possible that you have a head leak, that could cause un even mixtures and mess with idle. when the engine gets warm it expands. could seal up when it gets warm? i dont know im just throwing a long shot out there.
    Looking for some smaller style tires like the r's have, just 2 back tires. pm please.

    Have you tried adjusting the throttle cable? Cables do stretch over time.

    Did you put all the settings back to factory or where they were on the carb?

    If everything is fine except for the idle, adjust thr throttle cable about a 1/4 turn or were it feels right. good to go.
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is the same as calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.
