^^^what he said.
make sure the throttle pulley is going all the way down to "non-adjustable"bolt. you could check your throttle cable tension and also take your tb off and clean it up.

Get some teflon lubricant and a motorcycle cable lube tool and lube the throttle cable, also lube the spring side of the throttle body, also try some carb and choke cleaner and clean off the butterfly and the interior pivot points( where the shaft comes through the TB
