new rider here ..my first bike 1978 xs400
when i first start it in the morning and the engine is cold it runs gread and idles fine ...once the bike has been running a while and everything has gotten up to temperature if i let the bike idle it will idle for a short time then possibly miss then stall ..now when this happens in my driveway it is not too big of a deal but when i am out riding and i come to a stop light and i let it drop to idle if it stalls i freak out because of the lineup of cars waiting behind me..so i am in the habit of at stops i keep revving it so it doesnt stall ...
fortunately enough every time this happens it starts right back up without a problem but this is getting aggravating ...
any suggestions are greatly appreciated ..i have brand new properly gapped NGK plugs in it and the carbs were cleaned
