Have a 2017 flhx have about 1300 km, today when i start my bike the idle did not come down below 2500 and even went at 3000, what is to be the problem
This a temporary or sudden condition ? Was your engine hot at the time ?
Could be vapor lock. Ease out the clutch when this happens and the idle may just drop to normal under a temporary slight load. I sometimes get this under hot conditions, generally right after a refuel stop.
