Alright lads, the cousins T5 classic bogs down in first, he has to rev it hard to pull away. After it runs for a while the idle seems to die. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

t5 filters are drilled as stock , 1 hole over the main stack ,ok , an if it dont improve on the mixture screw i'd check carb over in general , slide for wear ,float for leaks ,needle valve working , as a flooding carb will bog bad , H

I've noticed the slide doesn't fully close when throttle not being used is this the norm?

Checked float it's fine. Replaced needle. Still bogs down any other ideas? Thanks.

Turned mixer screw 1 1/2 turns but when I gave it full throttle it died. So mixer screw at just under 2nd & it seems to be fine. Thanks for advice.
