Not sure about these new computerized bikes, but is there an idle adjustment ****? Even 1500 seems high for normal.

Besides that, maybe a vacuum leak?

on the 07 they started using the iacv that automatically adjusts the idle so there is no adjust **** i checked all the lines to see if unplugged or cracked but they all look good im gonna check again today its just so frustrating.

seems odd that you can't adjust your idle. check your owner's manual.

you might try disconnecting your battery for 20-30 minutes.

Default might have a solution to this...

I found a solution to this.

1) Start the bike but DO NOT touch the throttle. Let it run up to the temperature when the fan kicks in
2) Get on the bike and lift the kickstand up. Engage first and slowly let out the clutch until it bites. Do this a few times. Again do not touch the throttle
3) blip the throttle and see if it comes back to idle. Ride away!!

Before I tried this, mine was running at 2000rpm all the time. With the method above it started up at 2000rpm and then from about 40 degrees onwards it dropped down to about 1500rpm
