I've been having the same issue, I thought the same thing: idle jet, I cleaned out the whole thing really well and it looks ok, but its still wont idle right, Suziworld mechanic recons it needs a proper reco. Im going to try another carby.

Is yours the orange zook on the hwy in Upper FTG? looks great.
