Default HELP! Error code PO505

Can any one help me out with this error code. My bike (08 Street Bob) will start and run normally but when I turn it off and then go to restart it after an hour or even longer, it will not fire up unless I twist the throttle, then it wont idle. Any thoughts??

Thanks
Dave

DTC P0505 Loss of Idle Speed Control EFI

Wish I could be more help. You should still be under warranty; let the dealer handle it.
