    Never had this problem. Put the bike in neutral, start the bike to idle, 10 seconds later it dies. Repeat...A bit later I start the bike and immediately put into first gear. The bike continues to run. Drive the bike stop put the bike in neutral. Within 10 seconds it dies.
    Ideas?

    I have read some articles about the vacuum lines under the tank being flimsy and causing idle problems. I will be looking into that shortly.
