[QUOTE="OldernYZer, post: 1378897, member: 90656"] I'll hazard the assumption that contemporary motorcycles are subject to the same sort of emissions restrictions as cars are, and the fast idle time for automobile engines is limited by government regulation. This is mostly because the cold fast idle is also accompanied by enough mixture enrichment to keep the thing running until it warms up a little, same as an automatic choke used to work. The fast idle time will also be affected by ambient temperature; the warmer it is out, the less time it will run before settling down. My '08 fast idles for about a minute most of the time. [/QUOTE]
