Hi Dave,
As we know that HONDA is trying to find the root cause and solution so far, and some bikes’s problem are solved by throttle body assy. replacement “temporarily”. As the following attached post, this bike is out of warranty; this owner had no will to try the “unsure” & “high cost” solution. Therefore he sent his bike to parallel import trader (he bought bike from this trader) for throttle body clean, this was a compromise so far, he thought. Just cost him around 1~2 hundred USD. He has ridden ~1000km after that clean action, idle speed problem has no happened again; he will keep monitoring. For your reference.

It seems that the throttle valve assy. or idle speed motor were not the root causes!!!???
