Dying out on deceleration

This bike keeps dying when I'm decelerating and it doesn't matter if I'm clutching in or trying to roll in to a stop or sum'n, but it starts right back up and I think it's getting annoying, especially in traffic. Anyone else run into this before?, would love to hear what others tried
 
I've had similar issues before with my previous bike, not a Pan Am, and often it turned out to be a lean idle mixture or a vacuum leak. Try checking your idle screw first by bumping it up a bit to see if that helps stabilize it. If not, start looking for any cracked hoses or loose clamps around your intake manifold or carb or throttle body.
 
What kind of bike are you riding, and have you checked things like the idle speed, throttle position sensor, or any recent ECU updates that might be affecting decel behavior?
