There's the odd time I start the bike that it turns a little on the slow side when starting. It always does start but it could be doing it with more oomph. I...

I wait for it to reach 40c.. and as its warming up it idles at higher revs anyway. In saying that, I think I remember seeing it idling at 1400...
