[QUOTE="rmc_olderthandirt, post: 1330825, member: 68872"] An air leak can explain a fast idle, especially if you have re-adjusted the idle mixture recently. An air leak can't possibly explain an uncontrolled surge in power going up a hill unless your overall mixture was horribly rich to start with. A tiny amount of water in the bowl would not change anything, it wouldn't make any difference to the jetting as long as the water didn't enter the jet. If the water entered the jet, the bike just wouldn't run. I suspect that the problem is the throttle cable. It is either sticking and not allowing the carburetor to return to idle or something has managed to reroute the cable and it gets tugged on as you turn the handlebars. If you have a new cable, put it on and see if that fixes your problem. You should also inspect the twist grip and make sure it operates freely and will return to the idle position properly. If it isn't the cable then I would suspect that something is going wrong inside the carburetor to keep the throttle slide from returning to idle position. Rod [/QUOTE]
