To get to the two sets of idle gears inside the engine it requires a good amount of time, tools, and patients. It's no quick fix having to pull the engine, split the case, and seal it back together, but the feeling you get once you've done that on this bike is great as you'll learn a lot as you do so.
If I only had an hour to live I would spend it at work, because in there an hour feels like an eternity.
