This idling problem appears quite a bit. All the reasons mentioned will also cause an erratic idle, but from what has been said, it seems that its just the normal idle for everyone, then it drops to the putt putt level. After adjusting the float level, which was much too high in my brand new 2006, and putting the 38 pilot in mine, it will fast idle (about 1500rpm) for a few seconds and then drop down to silly slow idle speed and run a long time like that (very quiet like that tho). A blip of the throttle brings it back up to the normal idle.
If your bike leaks gas out the overflow when it on the stand or barely leaned over, your float is too high.
