UPDATE: Picked up the bike last night. On my way home, stopped at Jeff's and Omar show up too. We all looked it over and it seems to be a fuel issue, but more so, an idle issue.

The bike will warm up for 30 seconds or so, and then when the "warm up cycle" stops, the bike goes so low in idle, it dies, or wants to, if you don't hold on the throttle a bit. It may just be something as simple as adjusting the idle up. We(Omar) did do a maguyver test of the TPS, and said that it was fine.

There is definately a side issue, which may or may not be related, of the tank getting undeer pressure when the bike is running. I started the bike up last night after I got it home, and after it died, I would undo the gas cap, and a large hissing vacuum sound would come, as I was undoing the cap. No doubt, the tank is under vacuum when running, but probably shouldn't be.....so I need to figure out why and how to correct. It does have one of those Vortex screw in filler cap now...maybe I should put the stock one back on.

Thanks again for any help or ideas
