GPZList Digest, Vol 40, Issue 28

Hmm... It kinda always does (the wifey has complained about it before). 
I'm
thinking (initial diagnostics) are to reset the idle screws a bit
 leaner (2
turns?). I've avoided messing wiht the carbs because 
they're such a
difficulty getting in and out, but I may just have to 
'suck it up princess'
(as a couple buddies have been know to say), 
and just do it, damn the
difficulty.

I'd check the float height with a clear tube on the carb drain before making any adjustments.
 Also as others have pointed out the battery can do that if the plates short out with buckling from heat - but if IRC it doesn't crank either.
  If all else fails clean the carbs..
