Idle Problems Solved

I recently had my bike looked at for a spring tune and some idling problems (Apartment living makes it hard to do these things yourself some times). I suspected that the float valve might have been stuck because it seemed like the engine flooded when running at low revs. When the revs were high it seemed to run fine. Anyway, the answer came back from the shop and I thought I would post it in case others had this problem. Turns out that the problem was that the Petcock was leaking, thus causing the engine to flood unless it was running fast enough to burn off the extra fuel. I don't know if others have had this problem or are having trouble idling. It might be worth checking your petcock.
