CB1100 Idle speed instability problem
It's been a while since I've had time to add any new posts (although I have kept up with reading other posts). I know this is going to sound unbelievable, but my bike appears to have fixed itself! It's been about 1,500 miles since the uneven idling condition has occurred, and I have no logical explanation why. I have subjected the bike to identical riding conditions (stop & go city), but it now runs perfect, returning to a nice (approximate) 1,050 RPM at each and every stop light. I was planning to inspect the Idle Air Control Valve for possible sticking, or a bad electrical connection, but I am going to follow my rule of thumb of "If it ain't broke, then don't fix it". I sure hope my posting about this "miraculous" cure won't backfire on me and the problem comes back the next time I ride; I'll add a new post if it does.
