Sticky throttle cable or choke cable ..leaking Carb boots ...

I expect the lads will be along soon enough to get into detail on those... But you can search for those issues on the board and study up on the concepts :thumb:

Oops.. And WELCOME!! :D

Definitely clean and lube your choke cable. And your throttle cable.

This could also be a hanging idle problem...My 2009 had this as well. It's because they come from the factory with a lean jet setting
