My 250 pro xs s#-1B962308, runs rough under 2000 rpm's and fine above that. As it sets in idle, the motor will spike in rpm's from 560 to 1000 rpm's. Has anyone experienced this, if so what was the cause?
Thank you,

Yes. Bad TPS for me but it can be other things too.

Fuel and air pressure will need to be tested at the EXACT same time with two glycerin filled gauges.
+1... if no problems noted in pressures/leakdown, a Voltage Sweep Test of the TPS would be another item to check (while checking ALL of the Basics).

Don't throw parts at it, get it checked out......
Finally got my problem check out, it was the Tracker Valve! FYI this will be the 3rd tracker valve according to motor history???
Thx guys,

You might want to consider having the complete rails checked and cleaned, I would if I owned it and had replaced 3 in 6 years, I would also replace the spring and cover as well assuming they are available inividually
