Default Low idle speed slow at start then stalls unless I give it gas

I recently purchased a 2019 Honda Ruckus. So far I've put about 350 miles on it. It seems like the idle speed was pretty low when I would start it at first and then as the month went by it got even slower and would stall upon starring unless I quickly gave it a little gas.

I checked the filter and idle screw. Forgive me if my terminology is off I'm new to this. Does anyone know why this could be happening?

Thanks,

-Rick

Try raising the idle by adjusting the screw that's on the "butterfly" of the carb. Lift the back wheel up and raise the idle until it just begins to move slightly and then back off a hair.
