Hello all, first time poster, owner of a 2014 CB1100 since Feb 2016. Bike is at the dealership for a second time with this issue.
First time, the ECU was "fried" and replaced under warranty. The high idle issue (+1500 RPMs in neutral, surging to +2000 RPM when shifted into gear, using more fuel than usual, behavior worsening as bike is ridden longer) resolved itself after the ECU was replaced. The issue returned after ~2 months.
I have asked the dealer to specifically look at the IACV, and to NOT ONLY replace the ECU, but also the IACV, hoping this resolves the issue.
Fortunately the bike is warrantied through May 2017. My experience with this bike has been great, aside from these issues. I've installed the SW Motech crash bars and modified the CTX700 $50 rear seat and rack to fit the bike.
Loads of fun, I love riding it (talked to motogeezer before buying), but these issues are making the CB1100 a struggle to fall in love with.
