Just got the bike a couple months age. when it's just started it idles fine at a little over 1000 rpm. but when the bike reaches about 160 degrees the engine idles up to 4000 rpm.
Hi there!
On the carburetor, there is an idle knob. Make sure it is not set too high. This is normal during a cold start so make sure to adjust the idle knob back at 1,100 RPM after your engine is warmed up.
Also, make sure the choke system is clean and is free. Throttle cable should have an allowance of just about .8cm.
The engine idle may also be controlled with the thermostat connected to the grill fan. it will normally idle up to about 2,000 rpm when it senses that the engine is too hot but not 4,000.00 make sure this system is working well.
let me know if this helps
