Idle Speed

[rollingscott]

Hello all, Picked up my new Spyder on Tues. 5/12/09 and the only issue I see is the idle speed while at stoplights etc. It seems to vary between about 1350 and 1450 RPMs. Is this normal? I don't come from a biking background so please excuse what may be a dumb question (there may be more later).

That is the spec. It is controlled by the ECM, and is not adjustable, even by the dealer.
