    My bikes do this fairly often (as they are motocross bikes), the case with them is usually a gummed-up throttle cable.

    But in this case, I agree with Bio. Pull the boot off and see.
    Bio, what do you suggest to clean it? I would think something similar to WD-40 would do the trick?

    No your problem is probably ignition related. Your throttle isn't sticking, it's working. Your likely seeing a ton of KR. Try a tune up and see if that helps.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
