Took her in this weekend to a Harley Dealership that sells Buells, for the 1k service. Rode round trip 250 miles. I have ridden it 2 times since that day and now I went out to start it (45degrees ambient)and it was a little hard to start(never never had that problem before). After it warmed up I took off and noticed it idles what seems a little low, barely barely above the 1k mark, and now the throttle hangs when I let off the gas.
Is it possible they didnt do the TPS reset correctly?

More probably just the idle adjustment.
I know you have a service manual so it will be easy for you.
If you have questions give me a call.

Thank you Dave.
The thing thats weird is in the manual it says if the idle is to high, you will have the throttle hang when you let off. Wich it does. It takes about 7 seconds to go from 3k to idle. However when she is just idling and settles down it looks as if she is NO more than about 1050. 1050 is at the low end of the specs. Its weird. I will call ya if I need anything.
