I would look for any air leaks, split inlets etc. 900rpm is too low as well, idle should be 1200/1300rpm.

Get this sorted before you go back out on the bike - a bike that won't rev down will quite cheerfully pull you into cross-traffic!

Hi John no I haven't fixed it yet but I have found out what it is and I have got to remove the carbs and strip them down to fix it so it's a job for end of season as it's only over revving for a second or so and only 400ish rpm high it will be fine til oct.

What is the problem?

Basically the carbs and linkages are gummed up and need stripping down, cleaning and relubricating nothing serious just a bit of a 'take your time' job
