Continued problem

I posted earlier about how the bike wouldn't idle without choke.  I ran some carb cleaner through and it'll idle, but when it gets warm, it idles VERY high.  I have the adjustment screw almost all the way out so it stays below 3k at idle.  Any help?  Please and thank u.

As the bike warms up do the revs climb and drop a little, then climb again?  Also, does slipping the clutch return the revs to normal idle?  If so, then I think you have a vacuum problem.  Could be intake manifold (to check you can spray carb cleaner at idle around manifold at idle and watch for rev increase) or could be poorly sealed carb vacuum caps.  

Have you adjusted the idle mixture screws at all or are they still under the brass plugs?

Make sure the vacuum cap on the carb body didn't vibrate off too. A binding throttle cable will drive you nutty like that too. What's changed in between the bike running right and you having this problem?
