Have a 2007 Ninja 250r that I rescued. Got everything back together, fully cleaned carbs and gas tank. Has a new aftermarket vacuum operated fuel petcock, new plugs and air filter too. I've got one last issue that is driving me mad. I can't get it to idle right. If I twist the idle thumbscrew enough to get it to idle, then the revs dont come down when you blip the throttle. If I turn it down to where the revs come down quicker then it dies and when it does, really hard to restart. Any ideas??
I'm wondering if I pull the caps off the idle screws and bring them out a bit if that will help.
