Cold start stalling

[Grumpy Goat]

Quick update, we've had a warm week so I've had to wait for some colder weather, but at least I got ot get out on a nice Feburary ride  . Rolled the bike out of the 65 degree garage this morning and let it cold soak for 3 1/2 hours in 40 degree air. Lit right up, a little stumbly but still ran ok. I've got to think that the bike is running fine and that the stalling is a result of the air temp in the air box that the IAT sensor is seeing vs actual ambient air temp. Kind of a first world problem (but then again aren't all BMW problems?  ), so I'll just have to deal with it on cold mornings...

Great conclusion to this saga, Chris. Thanks for remembering to circle back and close the loop - much appreciated. 

Looks like the sensor is not as quick-acting as we'd like and as a result the engine is not getting appropriately choked so that it starts right away.

Speaking of slow sensors - on my RS the ambient air sensor (that tells the dash how cold it is; located just under the headlights on centreline, and above the front fender) is slow and this means that when I leave for home after work, it takes a good 5 minutes or so before the temperature changes from whatever it was when I shut the bike off after coming to work. IOW, if the temperature was say 45 deg.F when I came to work, up to 5 minutes after leaving for home in say 60 deg.F, it would still be saying 45 deg.F, before it magically jumps to 60 deg.F. I bought a new sensor some years ago but have yet to install it since it has not irritated me enough. The Yamaha has no such issue. Sometimes (?) it is good to have two (?) different bikes from different manufacturers side by side to show up what is "normal" and what should be normal.
