Brand new to bikes here, I'm learning as I go. I have a few questions.

I notice that sometimes when revving the engine, RPMs will sometimes stick around 3k, sometimes 5k, and go down very slowly. Rarely they get stuck, but it has happened - never gets stuck while in gear, only idle/with the clutch in. From what I understand, this is a vacuum leak somewhere?

I also used Sea Foam Spray yesterday and noticed some had leaked out under the bike. I didn't see where, just noticed the puddle afterward. Is this an issue?

Last one for now, any recommendations on replacing the button on the starter? Currently am using an alligator clip to arc it.
