The book says 1,100 RPM +/- 50. However, the bike's instruments only show a line for every 500 RPM. How do people check the idle speed? Cheers!

I was thinking multimeter but not sure if it's worth the effort. I'm half deaf with a mixture of too much heavy metal, infection and motorcycle wind rush but at least it's not clunky on the gears. :-D
