What is your idle speed set to?

Idle speed set to 1500rpm. Once the engine is hot it tends to idle at around 1800rpm

idle speed once warm shoulf be about 1250

What are the consequences of this to a carb'd engine? Running rich?

These particular bikes do run rich as standard anyway.
How long have you had the bike? (whatever it is, you need to put the year and model under your name to give us more info)
And do you know the history of the bike, in this example when was the air filter last changed? Changing to a K&N air filter can balance the fuel mixture a bit better by helping the engine breathe more.
