All over the place because you keep on adjusting idle-screws. Leave those alone and learn to use choke lever.
1. Cold start - 3/4 to full choke to start. If idle too slow, increase choke. If idle too fast, decrease choke. No change in idle-speed adjuster necessary.
2. Once started, adjust choke-lever for 3-4k RPM. If idle too fast, decrease choke. If idle too slow, increase choke. No adjustments to idle-speed necessary. Start your ride
3. In 5-10 min, if you stop, reduce choke again to lower idle-speed to 2-3k RPMs. If idle too high, decrease choke. If idle too slow, increase choke. No adjustment necessary on idle-speed screw.
4. 10-15 min, of turn choke full off after bike’s warmed up.
That’s it! Never ever need to adjust idle-speed knob. It’s all done conveniently and quickly with choke lever.

Thanks DannoXYZ.
I will try this method on the way home.
Since I have been adjusting the idle-speed knob excessively, I am not sure where it currently is.
Is there a base setting for that, or is it completely irrelevant?
Example; is the factory setting a certain number of turns off bottomed out, or does your method apply no matter the current position of the idle-speed knob
Please don't take this as me not trusting or believeing in your method, I just want to make sure I am following it as closely as possible to achieve the proper results.
Thank you again to everyone for all of the assistance. Once again, truly appreciated.
