Ferret, much appreciated on that note. I'll hopefully not have to find out but will keep it in mind if any further issue come up.
Joe, correct, no issues with the IACV since replacement. Put on ~1K miles since then.
As a side note, I accidentally simulated the "conditions" I thought brought about the high idle state by stalling a few times yesterday. A touch embarrassing, but for the sake of science, the bike did not return to a high idle state as it had in the past when stopping and starting the engine several times in quick succession.

IF you guys are still under warranty, can't you simply demand your dealer to replace the throttle body under warranty?
You'd help us all by making the issue official to Honda.
If Honda can collect a larger number of faulty parts, maybe they can find a common root cause in those faulty parts?
Because, lets face it, everything that has been tried out here or suggested here, simply does not work.
Riko, a tech from Honda diagnosed johnf514 high idle as a problem in the IACV. They replaced the IACV and after 3+ months he hasn't had a problem. Am I correct johnf? Riko see his post #142 in this thread.
Here is johnf514's post:
"Chiming in again for new members with my experience.
Bought a 2014 CB1100 EX with 6100 miles on it in Feb 2016, with over one year of warranty left.
Issue occurred three times over the last 10 months (high idle condition). The first two times, the dealership reset the ECU, which treated the symptom, but did not resolve the issue, and the high idle condition returned.
The third time I took the bike to the dealer, I demanded that they keep the bike until the issue was resolved before resetting the ECU. Honda sent a tech to the dealership and they determined the IACV motor was sending faulty information to the ECU, thus causing it to enter "limp mode." The dealership replaced the IACV motor (this was 3 months ago) and the issue has not returned.
I have 3 more months of warranty left, and I hope the condition does not return. Let me know if you have any questions."
