I think 1700 is a bit high. 1200 for timing purposes. As low as the bike
likes for idle.

The idling down and quitting is strange. Do you mean when you switch into
gear with the clutch pulled?

 It will idle in neutral, but if I pull the clutch in and leave it in
neutral, it will die. It will also die if I pull the clutch in and
put it in gear, without letting out the clutch.
Sorry I wasn't more clear on that. Bottom line is it won't idle
with clutch pulled in....whether the transmission is in neutral
or not.


Do you think that the clutch plates might be
grabbing?

That's my initial thought.
