Ok. Finally got everything on the bike I wanted; Race ECM, Full D&D, Ham can intake. Went to the dealer got the TPS reset (1 hr away). I started it up after the reset and it idols a little higher, about 1100, and I like that. However, after riding home I noticed that when I decel to stop the RPMs stay at about 2200rpm. The only way to drop them is to slow with the tranny, then it'll stay down. If I stop with the brakes, the RPMs will remain over 2000.
I can't find an intake or an exhaust leak, and can't imagine that the O2 sensor would have magically soiled the sheets with a TPS reset.
Anyway, any suggestions would be a great help, thanks.

lower the idle ;-}

don't know why you like the idle being higher, but try lowering it just a tad until the hanging at 2K stops . . . . . could be a matter of just a few revs

The cables arent binding, and there wasn't a prob before the tech did the reset. I'll bust out the manual and see what I can figure out. The reason I like the idol being a little higher is that when the bike starts from cold, I don't have to worry about it stalling out as soon as I leave it and go inside...it always waits till I leave it, like it's giving me the finger and cursing at me behind my back.

Yo Crux,
My X1 did the same thing only the dealer caught it when they test rode it. The adjustment is on the left inside the air scoop, a torx 27 and easy to adjust. The idle was ok on mine but after a warm up ride was way too high. They lowered it and no problems.

It just gets lonely...................
I've got the software for the reset and after it zero it I set it at 5.7 degrees. That seems to be where my S3T likes to be.
