Poor clearance in valves.
Yes, that clearance gets reduced with the usage of the engine and messes the proper timing and breathing, which makes combustion at low rpm's harder to keep.

Also drain the carburetor's bowls and adjust the idle rpm's.

If you ride everyday, the jets and internal passages of the carburetor should be clean.

Sometimes vacuum hoses get old and develop cracks that allow air intrusion.
That also works against a smooth sustainable idle.
