I often experience the hesitation & a bit of spluttering after start up when the bike has not been run for a while.Always clears by the time I get to third gear & is fine from then on.I just put it down to stale/degraded fuel in the float bowls.The bike is very low mileage & really needs to be used more I guess :rolleyes.Noticed on a ride out the other day tho that the idle speed has dropped to around 800RPM & the clutch is a lot noisier than normal at tickover.(still goes nice & quiet with the lever pulled in).Thought it was going to stall at one point!.Wondering now if it's only running on 3 at tickover due to a jet blockage maybe.Or do the carbs just need balancing?.(stills pulls like normal through all the gears).
