HI there,

This sound as if the throttle butterfly is binding due to fuel reside build up, remove the air intake hose and open the throttle by hand, using a good quality throttle body cleaner, clean the opening and the throttle valve, clean the edge of the valve as well, just use a soft rag and done leave cleaner in intake when you start up, this should fix your problem.
