You may have to adjust the idle screw in the morning, if you want idling after an early morning start.
Excellent explanation there Kuttapan.
I like the bike not to idle, we call it Dead Beat.
It has some other advantages too, the bike cant be started nor can it be driven around by anyone not used to the dead beat, I believe in One man machine, i.e. no borrowing or lending.

A similar problem my activa was giving me since the 1st servicing, getting the carb bowl cleaned solved the problem.
