I get 1500-1750 rpm at tickover.
Is this normal or high?

Is there any ideal tickover value of RPM?

Lightened 2KG flywheel.

I think you can get lower. Is your idle jet too small?

Dellorto PHBH 30 with breath sweet filter.
I use a 53 pilot jet. Using a 55 was giving rich symptoms.

I'll try to tomorrow to get it around 1000 RPM.
Cheers.

Update.

Have lowered it at 1200 to 1300 RPM.
There is no way to set it lower and having a good tickover.
