jeb, thanks for the pointers. I will try turning up the idle speed first since this seems to be the easiest thing. I am still getting used to the brakes since this is my first KTM and I was riding a TTR225 before that had really poor brakes. I am currently running the stock gearing, I have only had the bike about three weeks now. I don't have problems with the bike stalling while riding in normal desert terrain, (sand, whoops, etc.)it stalled when I was going slow down hills.
