Get some Carb Cleaner and clean the throttle plate and MAP sensor. This isn't hard to do. I clean the oil and carbon off the throttle plate when I service my air cleaner.
Here's a shot in the dark. Pull air cleaner & filter, the cleaning of throttle body is close. Look inside the throat of the body, there is a small opening with a little pin in it. This is part of the IAC (Idle Air Control). The little pin must operate smoothly to assist in idle control. Spray some MAP cleaner at this little pin and cycle the ignition a few times. What you are doing is cleaning the oil vapor build up out of the IAC. The oil is thicker, more viscous, when it's cool outside. This might help you out.

Just pulled the codes and there's nothing. All of them state none.
This morning, it was still a little cool outside and the bike ran flawlessly. Now I probably just jinxed it.
Well, back to troubleshooting!
No codes is a good thing!!
Other suggestion to clean TB are right on for the next step.
Codes could mean temp sensor or speed sensor.
Keep after it...
You'll get it figured out eventually
Good on ya for tracking it down
