At 15,000 miles my 2013 CB1100 had the high idle issue a year ago immediately after trying to start with a very weak battery, and it went back to normal after re-charging, battery disconnect, throttle twist reset routine, and several high-rpm runs thru the gears. Others tried same fix and got mixed results.
1 year later I now run a Yosh titanium pipe w/ the O2 sensor eliminator plug widget and it still idles perfectly normal, 7500 miles later. Now it has 23,000 miles.
I wonder if anybody here runs the O2 sensor eliminator widget but still has a high idle; that would prove its not the fix. Or do a new O2 sensor replacement (or the eliminator plug) on a high idler and post results. The special O2 removal tool is required for the latter test.
Positive or negative results from the process of elimination is kinda like throwing parts at a problem but seeing real world documented results is helpful.
Critical put-down posts from know-it-all “experts” will be ignored (sometimes they deserve the appropriate humorous responses) but hopefully they learned their lesson and will contribute in a positive manner in the future, and refrain from being negative.
