I have a 2000 sprint rs that suddenly began to idle higher than normal, 1500-2000 rpm.once it came to operating temp. The bike had a 36,000 service recently and I asked the dealer to address this, but when I got it home it was still doing it. Anybody have any ideas? :???:

Sounds like it could be drawing in extra air to the engine, as a weak mixture will increase engine speed.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Toothpick.
