Hi Nick, it may be that your bike has not been used much recently and the flow of fuel has increased as the jets and passageways have had any crud moved along. Mine has only done 10000 miles and I had the same experience, requiring some resetting as the miles were accumulated. I suggest you wind out the throttle stop screw adjusted on the carburettor body. It’s the screw at 60 degrees pointing up to the slider, in and the idle will increase, out and it will reduce. The horizontal screw close by is the slow running mixture, so best leave that as is.
