Try leaning out the air screw by turning it counter clockwise a quarter turn at a time. If the air screw has no effect, install a leaner pilot jet and return the air screw to 1 turn out. Proper air screw settings are usually between 1 and 2 1/2 turns out.

Why is your 2001 KTM 520EXC not ideling?

I would first look at the idle jet to make sure it is not clogged. If the idle jet is ok, it is either a bad spark plug (not likely but a cheap fix), the carburetor out of adjustment or a faulty ignition.

How do you adjust the idle on a KTM?

I have a Keihin-FCRMX 41 on my KTM (2007 525 XCW) and to adjust the idle you have 2 controls. The first being the adjusting wheel (black plastic knob on the side of the carb) and the other is the mixture control screw at the front of the float bowl on the bottom of the carb. 1) Warm up the engine 2)Turn the adjusting wheel to set normal idle speed at 1400-1500 rpm 3) Turn the mixture control screw slowly clockwise until idling speed starts to decrease. Memorize this position, and turn it counterclockwise until the idling speed decreases again. Now adjust the point of highest idle speed between these 2 points. 4) Now use the adjusting wheel to set the desired idle speed.
