Could be just normal backing off or are you are running a little rich.  Check 
the plugs, and if they are black that confirms the rich running.  If they are 
white,  you
are running lean.  Gray and you should be just about right.  There are many 
folks on the list more knowledgeable on this than I am, but this is someplace 
to start.  If your plugs have oil on them, it's a different ball game.
