Runs fine at high rpm then dies
I bought a 1980 GS1000 a few days ago, spent a little time getting her running today. After it warms up and the choke is off it revs up for a few seconds comes down to idle speed, then dies. I can restart it and hold the throttle over 1500 and it runs just fine. I'm thinking clogged idle jets, anyone have any other ideas?
