Chain, that sounds like the pros and cons of EFI in general. Can you just adjust the idle speed to your liking manually with the idle speed adjuster? I'm not trying to be sarcastic but maybe that is exactly what it is for? I really don't know what it is for specifically because I have not had a reason to adjust it except when programming my Power Commander.

Here's the thing -- my old Zooki was FI and had a lever. Basically when it's cold ya push the lever a bit, crank bike and put lever back to starting position. The Honda is all automatic -- puter does it for ya. The idle adjust knob might help a bit but as the engine warms you'd be fiddling with it to get it back right.

Another great benefit to the fast idle lever is I modified the one on my Busa and had cruise control. It'd keep my speed constant from 60-110mph. Great for long stretches when your throttle hand gets tired.

this is my forth blade and is by far the best ever Honda are top when its comes to warranty claims they never question anything my dad has worked for the big "H" all his working life 46 years at the same dealer so any problems my dad hears about them non about 04/05 blades apart from a few paint finish issues

Not enough power! NOT! Seriously, trunk space sucks, and I wish I could move the bars back just a fuzz, but otherwise this ol' fart's extremely happy!
