what are the average rpm's at idle? Mine has been idling around 2- 2.5k

 

I'm sitting right around 1,300-1,400rpm

Adjust your idle. You're just wasting fuel that way.

 

It depends if your bike is a Cali model or a 49 state model
Cali = 1400 + or - 100 rpm
49 = 1200 + or - 100 rpm

 

when I adjust the idle **** it won't go any lower, any way to fix this?

 

that means your carbs are not working properly. Do not unscrew it too much or the screw will fall out and youll have to take off the carbs to get it back in!

 

I just bought this bike, and the person I bought it from took the carbs apart and cleaned them. I have not done this yet, so how do I fix this problem?

 

ok, I feel like a total idiot now, I had the choke on, i will run it for a bit with it off, and it should be fine.

 

lol... we all do stupid things. My favorite thing is when I fuel up and forget to put the fuel switch to on. Some time later as I am rolling down the road and my begins to sputter... yes... I am SOL. It's happened more than once but it's been a couple years since I've done that one.

 

lmao ive done that before... leave my fuel switch off... got about a mile down the road and the bike dived. lol. i grabbed the clutch to keep from flipping over the handle bars and coast back out... it took me forever to realize wtf was wrong. haha i wanted to kick myself for doing that. never done it since then. haha.
