You can adjust it yourself if you have a Power Vision or FP3, but there's also a method to reset the idle, not sure what it is but someone will chime in.

Dont know if there is a power vision tuner for that year of bike. I have a 2015 FLHTK and can adjust the idle speeds with it.

Believe in 04 that it was a Delphi ECM (if it was fuel injected, OP didnt say), so its very likely that the PV could support it, but I could be wrong.
