Question Rough starting

When my 85 GSLSE sits over night, I have a rough start the next morning. Typically it will turnover and start but it is very sluggish and rough like it wants to drop idle and stall. If I keep giving it gas it will eventually, in about a minute or so, start to run smooth at about 1100 to 1200 rpm. After about 5 minutes of running the idle drops to its normal of 800 rpm. This happens every morning for the last week or so. Any ideas folks??

How many miles on the injectors, have they ever been serviced. They may be leaking.
