High idle, low idle Hard start
I tried almost all of the posted fixes that have been discussed on this subject. I was about to give up on my ST.
The last time I was reassembling it and testing it. It started with no issues but when it had run for about 4 minutes it stated the high idle thing. I was so disappointed. I turned the engine off and restarted it after a while. I was looking at the wiring on the right side near the ECU as it ran. I then pushed on the harness with my finger and the engine died. Hmmmmmmmm I restarted it and pushed on the harness again. It died.
So I noticed all of the wiring harness was really stretched. I disconnected all of the connectors and inspected them. I then reconnected and rerouted all of the branches. Now all of the connectors are not being stressed. Took the bike out and now I remember why I love riding it so much. Just have a few hundred miles since the work was done but I am very hopeful it is fixed. I will update every few hundred mile or so.
