Mine was doing this, sitting at 300 rpm. Also not starting up to well. Cleaned the air filter, changed the spark plugs and gave it an oil change but was still the same. Disconected that battery over a weekend to reset the ECU and sorted it.

Seems to do it most in 3rd gear just under 2000rpm.
Idle seems a bit low now and again..
