Played around a bit with choke cable into carb and throttle cable and idle screw and doing that seems to have fixed idling perfectly at 1190 to 1200 spot on. Thanks OPT.

Figured you'd find the problem once you retraced your steps.. Good luck on it.

Idle it down the 1100 to 1200 or so after it warms up....then adjust the air/fuel adjustment for max idle RPM, then adjust the idle again. Are you sure all the boots...carb and airbox are good and tight...no leaks?

Fuel screw is blocked off on these models with an aluminum plug. Usually preset from the factory pretty close.
