1977 xs650 Engine idel issue. Not sure if this is a clutch or an engine problem or a carb problem. When I enguage the clutch at a stop light or where ever the engine idle is climbing up to about 3500rpm. This seems to do it especially when it has been running and the engine is hot. Even when i am rolling and completley let off the gas and enguage the cluth it still does this. I dont belive the carbs are getting stuck open. When bike is cold engine runs fine. The only thing i have notied is there is a small oil leak in the head gasket. But very small just some seapage and compression is still good. I checked the cluth friction plats and springs. All in good shape. Carbs we tuned and synced last summer about 600 miles ago.
