Throttle Issue.... :( :( 1980 KZ750

Repost as i was told not to post in engine...my bad
Well guys I got the Daytona bars thanks to Biquetoast so they should arrive by friday... Anyway I have noticed that after riding the bike for about 20 minutes or so the throttle begins to stick a bit, i mean the actual throttle grip works fine and snaps back properly but the actual throttle will stick and gradually settle down, I dont think this is safe for when I start to ride it specially when changing gears it coul dbe dangerous, anybody know what might be causing this?

HELLOOOO????

What kind of bike is it? Model?

Not really, since there were two different KZ750's made in 1980, a 750 twin and a 750 four (two models of 750 four actually)

So, is it a KZ750G (twin), KZ750E (four) or KZ750H ( LTD four)?

im having a similar problem on my '80 750 LTD. I posted on two other threads of people that have the same problem.

Its a KZ750 4 cyl

First off, is the throttle actually sticking or is the bike just idling at 3k-4k rpm and gradually dropping back to normal idle?

Too high fuel level in the float bowls and vacuum leaks can cause the latter, never seen the former.
