CB1100 Idle speed instability problem
My bike had the notorious fast idle for a week or 2 last November. Idled around 1700 but only in neutral; when dropped into 1st it noticeably rose a few hundred more rpm's. It started acting funny after a month of non-use and the battery barely cranked the bike and took repeated attempts to start. Then it did the fast idle routine. My personal "fix" was to disconnect battery and charge overnight, did the throttle roll-on procedure, then rode the bike really hard for a few minutes.
Hasn't acted funny since that week. Bike had 17,000 miles and now has 22,000. Orig battery and it's a 2013 btw. Bike still runs purfect (knock on wood).
