Idle Good at Cold Start but Jumps when Hot

2011 looks to idle at 1100 on cold start after settling down but after riding for a short while idle runs 1200 to 1300. At least that's my interpretation of the gauge. Anyone else notice this and is the gauge fairly accurate?
 
My 2010 idles higher when first started cold (1400 maybe?), but quickly idles down below 1000 for a couple minutes, then comes back up to 1100, which is where I set the idle when warm.  It's very consistent about it too.

I have never noticed anything to make me question the accuracy of the Tachometer either.
