over idling 749s

Hi all, been meaning to register for a while now, but suddenly have a reason (apologies)

End of last year I joined the club with a 749s, and what a bike, absolutely love it. However it has developed a small glitch (don’t they all) after a riding for a while the idle speed seems to stick anywhere around 4000 to 6000rpm, its a bit scary to loose engine braking and be pushed through the corners. Its been back to the dealer once, and they came back with a shrug of the shoulders saying they could not find a stored problem, or reproduce it. Now its becoming more of a frequent problem, the dealer thinks it might be a leaking air manifold, Im not so sure, as if you switch the bike off and wait a few minutes before restarting normal service is resumed. Also the throttle feels as if its operating normally, suggesting its not a sticky cable of butterflies.

Anyone had or heard of this before?

Cheers

Russ
