I'm also having this problem.  When I first rescued this (honda cb750c, 1980) bike it had set for 4 years in a backyard covered.  In the begining I could only run hotter NGK D7EA spark plugs now.  after six months and cleaning the carbs serveral times tighting up the timing I can now run the regular D8EA plugs.  I have the mix down to a half turn. and still my idle is sluggish comming down and I'm still a little on the lean but not bad.... I have noticed when I come to a stop if I rev up and let off it drops quickly.  So I agree that newer/stiffer slide springs might correct this problem ... Looking into finding newer springs today ... I will get back with my results...

Thanks this sight has helped a lot....
