Hi folks

My 2002 YZF R6 is being a bit iffy. I want to sell her to upgrade soon, and want as much as I can for her.

Only problem is there's a bit of a rough idle and she won't stay on for any more than a minute without me having to feather the throttle.

She drives fine otherwise, no problems at all. It's just when I pull up to slightly longer traffic lights she has a problem staying on. Anyone have any ideas what this would be? Knackered sparks? Dirty carbs? Air filter? All three..?

Thanks muchly!

Is it idling at the correct speed? Perhaps tweak it up a couple of hundred see how she goes.

Already tried that some time ago! Didn't make much difference if I'm honest... Thinking of taking it to a shop before I part ex but I know it'll cost a fortune.
