As long as it rises a little it's probably working, but if you let it idle in your driveway for a while, it should eventually rise noticeably.

When coming to a stop sign I was in second so I pulled in the clutch and shifted to first and kept it in while coasting to the sign. Bike died on the way to the sign probably about a second after shifting to first
At this point I can't tell you why that happened. Will it idle for minutes at a time in neutral, or could it just be that the idle circuits of the carbs are dirty?
