i thought so but mine doesnt seem like it changes anything. The rpms are fine when i start it but once it warms up t drops below 1000 . i have to give it a little bit of throttle to start it.

Turns out it was stuck. I just traced the tube out to find the spring and gave it a dose of wd40. A few wiggles later it was perfect!!!

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums. I have an '05 that's having the same problem; bike idles at 1500 or so when cold, but the warmer it gets, the lower the idle until eventually it won't idle unless I give it some gas. The bike runs great at low and high speeds, and you wouldn't know anything was wrong with it until you came to a stop light and it died on you. I've tried new gas, and the idle adjustment screw (I can see the screw going in and out up inside the bike, so I know it's not stuck.) The idle adjustment doesn't seem to do anything, either. Is there any way to adjust the throttle cable? Also, turning the idle adjustment screw which way does what? The manual is incredibly vague on this...
