So I changed the FPR today and it fired up right away. After about 3 mintues of idling it died. Now it wont start unless i give it wide open throttle and i have to maintain the idle. After a few times the battery died and now i have to trickle it and wait to start it, if it dies i have to charge it. Could the battery cause it not to idle properly and die? or is it something else?

Default Update!!!!

so today after leaving the bike overnight, went to start it and everything was fine. Started right away, idled perfectly and rode awesome. After it warmed up, it would die again and i would need to give it a tiny bit of throttle to get it going again. This would happen at every light. I rode it home and let it cool once again and it was fine, what would cause it after warming up? Any ideas?

I've posted in general tech already but the plugs were dirty and the bike runs well after I clean em, but then when it warms up it doesnt start without throttle.....R/R? Something else?

Thumbs up Update! It is fixed

so today after calling a few places i found out the idle adjustment screw was causing it to die at lights and after warming up, it is now properly adjusted and runs perfect......makes sense.....
