Carb sticking
My 08 250R doesn't seem to want to return to idle immediately after releasing the throttle. I've lubed the cables, but it still retains RPMs for a few seconds after turning off the throttle...any ideas?
I'm thinking about shimming the carbs & removing the snorkel...would this help? Thanks in advance. |

When was it last serviced, more importantly when were the carbs last cleaned?

In order to locate it, spray some WD-40 or Starter fluid in that area and pay attention to a change in rpms.

I don't know about prior service. I just inherited it from the PO, a relative.
