RE: throttle question
there are 12300+ miles on the bike. i also noticed the hotter the bike gets the worse it gets with this problem; after riding the bike for about 30 min or so. i checked the plugs, there fine. as far as gas usage goes, i use mid grade gas from diamond shamrock. ill try another station when i get close to being empty and see if there is any diffrence. another note: lets say im in a parking lot at a full stop. i put it in first gear and let the clutch out fully. the bike will ride the gear (like a granny gear in a old jeep). so im "ridding" the gear without any throttle... then i do a 100% full throttle and the bike sounds like its flooding for a couple of seconds, then the power kicks in. if this is normal, ive never realized it b4.

RE: throttle question
i had this similiar prob when i jus purchased my bike... engine stalls when its too hot... later found out from my mechanic that its because the idling **** adjuster is adjusted too low (idling too low)... its adjusted so low... that it has exceeded the minimum point.... hope that helps...
