				Not having much luck, are you?
High idle speed especially when coming to a stop is usually leaky inlets or possibly airbox. On the H model (it is isnt it?) im not sure where the idle screw is. On the L model its a little black knob down on the right hand side just above the clutch cover. clockwise to increase revs, ACwise to decrease revs.

				It seems to rev high when hot, and the o-rings i replaced are tricky so i recon they may have disturbed them. but what strange is when i put stand down it cuts out even ion neutral :/ but i am running that redex stuff you suggested in it so wouldnt be anything to do with that would it? oh and yes its a H

				Has it only started doing this since you put the redex in? More than likely that if thats the case.
What O rings did you change?
Check the switch on the clutch, theres a small connector block make sure its in. Check the switch down by the side stand too.

				sortedn stand, and ive found idle, and i replaced the ones between the carbs and airbox. and so u recon it could be the redex? its perfomed better since i used it coz it needed a good flush but its been like it since ive rode it so could be anything.
Also bad luck i ran out of electric on way how so had to go down side roads with only side lights on as when i puit main on it died and i had to keep bumping it :/ starting to get abit peed now if i get much more troube im guna fix it and sell it lol.

				Yeh thats what i was worried about, but when i checked the carbs and that, i found the shop that had restricted left the two middle inlet rubbers loose to those 2 cyclinders must have been getting too much air as its as sweet as now

				Glad u got it sorted, i would have said probably a leak and bad mixture also but u kind of checked them off lol. Mine hanged no matter what mixture, im rebuilding and it must have been my valves not seating right..lots of carbon buildup aswell
