My bike recently started having this problem from one day to the next. I plan on giving in and taking it to a mechanic, but want to be informed. When I hit ignition switch it works but the bike won't turn over unless I apply the throttle. However, after a minute it'll die at idle unless I throttle it again. Is there one thing that could be causing the problem? Any input is appreciated
 
I'm sure you would have thought of this but just in case have you applied your choke? I have a 2002 suzuki 600 and it dies at idle when its cold unless the choke is on
