    Just a heads up, I've found the trick where you spray wd-40 or carb spray around the Boots to be Ineffective.

    I sprayed my boots several times, Idle never jumped.
    Then 10 minutes later, found some air leaks by hand.
    (some of my clamps weren't quite tight enough, tightened it down, bike INSTANTLY ran better.)

    By the way, "popping" can be caused by excess air(air leaks), not just running rich.
    (according to what several people here were just saying a few days ago)

    --------

    I also have an Idle problem with my 650g too!
    I don't why, but it seems like 90% of people with the 650's have Idle problems more often than other bikes!

    I know I have some minor float blockage somewhere, But the bike runs fine most of the time, just every once in a while I get a hiccup in the system.

    Never underestimate a clean gas tank too!
    Even minor rust can cause problems....usually the particles are like a grain of sand and CAN clog **** up eventually or cause idle problems.

    I know this is another part of my bikes problem, but like I said, once I get the bike warmed up, it runs good.

    But my bike really doesn't like to Idle below 1400rpms, usually floats nicely at 1600, it sounds like garbage under 1400......runs great once I get the throttle open.
