Is the idle speed set too low? If so, adjust it, using the idle speed adjusting screw, to the correct idle speed (900 RPM). If that's not the problem, then check for air leaks between the carburetors and the engine by spraying WD-40 around the intake manifolds with the engine running. If there is an intake leak, the engine RPM will change briefly when the WD-40 is sprayed near it.
Aside from that, there are two other things that can cause your engine to die when it should be idling: the idle speed mixture adjustment, or low cylinder compression. Of course, if it was idling fine before, and the idle mixture adjustment hasn't been changed, then do a compression check, first. To idle properly, each cylinder's compression needs to be at least 140 psi.

you need to adjust the idle speed it will be a thumb screw down by the bottom side of the tank nomally, inline with the carbs and also attached to them when you find it turn it 1/4 turn clockwise and see if your idle picks up if it doesnt turn the other way till it does, normally the average idle speed is about 900-1200rpm hope this fixes it
