Might be the air filter, did Tut not describe a similar problem recently.
Take the air filter out and clean it if you can, if it looks dirty get a new one.
And
to SE.

If you dare! Beware the trolls!
We are much nicer here
also check that the throttle moves correctly, might be a knackered throttle lever. Dunno about whistling tho.
Do you have any mods? Induction kit could do some funny things if its dirty. Quick to fix though.
