I just rode my 225DX for the FIRST time...While i was riding it wanted to stall but i adjusted the idle to normal.....Now when i start it it runs a little but then wants to stall when i touch the throttle

:confused:

sounds like carb problems, clogged jets or water in the fuel try draining the carb. also my 225 did the same thing today my spark plug cap was cracked letting fire short to the head it would idle great i guess the vibration of revving it would move the cap enough to let it arc
