Hi, I was wondering what the idle rpm's should be on an 08 800 EFI HO? It seems that mine is a bit high. I told the dealer where I bought it from to check it, but I don't think they changed it. Thanks!

Mine is right around 1320 + or - some. I think this is too high and pretty close to where the clutch starts to engage.

Thanks for the replies guys. That makes me mad because I asked them to check it when it was in there getting the winch wiring replaced. It wouldn't be such a big deal if I had my own truck so I could get it there.

If you guys are right then it's the same as my 500 which hovers around 1150-1180. I'm surprised it would be the same on a twin and a single cylinder. The clutch engagement speed might be the same too.
