CB1100 Idle speed instability problem
tbh, dunnno what the build year was, since its been sold 13 months ago.

I got it in December of 2015.
So either its a 2015 or a 2014 bike

Being European and as you can see by the spoke wheels, its an EX.
It has the new digital dash with 6 gears.
And the tank that came after the teardrop tank and before the current model offered.

So yeah, definately a 2014-2017 model.
Asian facebook pages are flooded with the idle issues of the EX and as I remember, many of the 100 pages that this topic holds, are compromised by 2014 and up models.

So, big was my surprise to read a active member state that he doesnt remember if 2014 and post 2014 models have the issue.
If anything, I'd say it are mostly 2014 and up models that suffer from this issue.


Than again, this is a US board and maybe non US members aren't as active here, or the number of EU members is small compared to non US members.
But when I brought in my bike, the Honda dealer knew about the issue and it was he who sugested to swap throttle bodies, since this "fixed" the problem in a similar case in The Netherlands.
So I'd assume, the problem is bigger than what is perceived on this US board.
