I have a 05 GSXR-750 with only 4,000 miles, just bought it and the bike sat all last year. When I start it it will idle at 1200 for about 3-4 seconds then go down to 900-1000 and pulsate and often it will shut-off, even when warm and up to temperature. I searched and a lot of people adjusted the idle screw which I am thinking about doing and I am in the process of running a full tank of gas through it since it sat for so long. Do you think adjusting the idle screw will solve my problem? Thanks guys

Yep, sounds like your idle is a bit low, you want it around 1200 rpm or so after the choke is off. Just use a screwdriver to adjust the idle screw in or out until you get your idle where you want it. It shouldnt take any more than a 1/4 to a 1/2 a turn. Any more than that to only adjust a few thousand rpms and you might need a TPS (throttle position sensor) adjustment
