Idle problem, Transalp XL700VA, 2008

Hi All

Im having problems with my 2008 Transalp XL700VA

It will idle unevenly, and stop in crossings sometimes.

The engine dying, is obviously a bit of a danger, as it can lock the rear wheel.

I did have cracked vacuum hoses between the carbs. These have been replaced.
I have opened the rotating part of the IACV, and cleaned this with spray carburettor cleaner.

I have not taken the IACV housing off.

No DTC or MIL blinking

The manual states

Engine stalls, hard to start,Rough idling :  

  1. Check the idle speed.

  2. Check the IACV.

  3. Inspect the fuel supply system

Does anyone have any good ideas please?

Thanks
