If one is out of the top of a carb or it is pulled out of the adjuster at the lever or splitter or the adjuster is miss adjusted the slides will not bottom to the screw.
I'd do a visual of the cable and if nothing is apparent I'd look at both slides and make sure they bottom out. .............lm
One step ahead of ya! I did that as well when I pulled the tank, air filters/boots, slides, jets, etc. The slides definitely bottom out. The cable is still in really good shape and pulls both slides evenly and returns to bottom. I also did this to see if the slides were getting hung up somehow in the chamber. They don't seem to be.

I did! I ran it with the tank on, filters and boots off, watched the slides bottom out. Heard the slides tap the bottom of the carb bore.

The symptoms persist. Like I said, when the bike gets warmed up, it will idle at 1500-2000rpm with the idle screws (not mix screws) fully removed. Slides are closed all the way.

They are, and the bike runs more or less fine otherwise.
