My bike does this in cold too, 5C or so. I let it warm up on choke, then as I move it around, idle-speed goes up & down without touching throttle. I have left-hand on left-bar and right-hand on pillion-seat to push it around. I suspect the varying idle-speed has to do with fuel sloshing around in float-bowls.
