A few have experienced a higher than normal idle on the 07 bikes that climbs higher as time goes by. It will set a code for idle controller (P0505) when this happens which you can find here....

The cause has been found to be the idle stop screw that is located on the throttle body. It should be capped and installed with a locktite from the factory but for some reason, it seems to have been overlooked with the loctite at the factory and vibrates out and hangs the throttle up in a higher than normal idle.
Readjustment to the proper idle speed and an application of locktite will cure this problem.
