My 2014 standard started doing it again last night.
The idle would drop down to around 500 rpm and then slowly creep back up to around 1000 rpm. I tried the throttle reset mentioned here and that seemed to help.
I originally chalked up the last time the idle problem happened to bad gas but I've only been using tier 1 gas since then. I also add some Techron or Seafoam about once a month.
I'm going to take the bike out later today and see how it is. If it acts up again, I'm going to the dealer and insist that he check it out. My bike is still under warranty until July.
I'm just concerned as this might become a safety issue with possible nasty repercussions.
had a similar issue on mazda protege 5. had to replace the EGR valve a few times.
hope this helps.

Thanks for the heads up.
I just got back from a ten mile ride and the idle seemed stable. I'm still going to talk to the dealer about it.
I should also add that the bike isn't running rough when the unsteady idle happens. I suspect it might be something in the electronics dept.

the issue with the car happened within the first 2 minutes of starting and only if coming to a stop ,(like a stop light) . the idle would just drop, no rough running. never happened after being warmed up.
it was a known issue that the EGR valve went bad and needed replacement. the manufacturer decided not to do anything about it. had the car over 10 years so yeah, a few times.
