It looks like I'll be replacing mine, as soon as I can complete the work I'm doing on my VFR800, so I can make room in my garage. This looks like a fairly involved task, and will probably take me an entire Saturday (yes, I'm slow, but I take my time and am very careful, especially when working on something new and for the first time).
I can hear my IACV cycling by listening to the clicking noises it make at start up. Does this mean that it is stuck, and that maybe all it needs is to be cleaned?
Sorry Dave, i was wrong, i mixed up the iacv with the tps in my mind,thanks sportsterdoc, apologies to all for the confusion, you guys are right, the iacv IS available as a separate spare part from Honda.
There is some good news from johnf415, he replied to a question and said;

Hi Max,
My bike had the high idle issue, where the engine would idle without any throttle input above 1500 RPM, sometimes surging up to 2000.
However, I did also have the low idle issue at times, although not as frequently, and the behavior was as you described. The engine would drop in revs down to 600-700, and slowly creep back to 1050 if left alone. I recall a couple of stalls, but usually I would avoid that by adding throttle.
I hope this helps, happy to contribute as needed to solve this gremlin!

Hi John, still trying to find the exact fault the slow way, sorry to ask but Dave reports that the bike takes 5 to 10 seconds to go from 700 rpm to 1050 rpm, from memory is that what happened to your bike at any stage or was it just stuck at low rpm all the time?
Just trying to compare the symptoms before i ask him to replace the iacv.
Thanks max

Sometimes it is the small details that matter, and this makes me feel more confident that the iacv replacement is going to work, by all means clean the iacv contacts first, you may get a pleasant surprise.
