when letting off the throttle or pullin in the clutch my rpms dont drop, just stays revved up. its not a sticky cable. i talked to bill blue, he says its too lean and i need to go up one size on the pilot jet, any other input?

 

Air leak?

 

I would go with what bill says...I'm pretty sure he knows what he's talking about.

 

38 pilot jet...... adjust fuel screw too

 

"Listen to that dude Rufus...He knows what he's talking about."

 

Did it always do it or has it just started doing it?

 

I guess we should have thought to ask that question before we spouted out all our answers...good catch neil.

 

just started this season, was fine last season.

 

Far be it for me to challenge Bill Blue but if the jetting was OK last season
I would pull the carb off, clean, check etc.
As Westoz suggested, check for air leaks.

Does it hold revs under load or just when the bike is standing still?

 

I agree that if it ran fine last year and now doesn't, you've got some dirt or varnish in the carb. When I was playing around with a TM33 on my bike, I ran into a similar problem. The RPM's would hang between shifts. Even revving it up in neutral, the RPMs hung a while before settling back to idle. When riding one day, I noticed that whenever I came to a sudden stop, the bike would stall - every time. It turned out that a piece of crud found it's way into the choke mechanism. Even though the choke seemed to be closed, it actually was still cracked open a little bit. After cleaning the choke out, it solved the problem.

If your pilot jet is indeed too small, one way to verify that is to crank open the the fuel/air mixture screw. If you have to open the mixture screw 3 turns or more from closed to find the lean/rich sweet spot, you need a bigger pilot jet. Open the mixture screw 3 or so turns from closed and see if it runs better - if so, then go bigger on the pilot jet. But again, I think you've got dirt somewhere.
