A tiller for an outboard motor powered by an engine includes a tiller body that is elongated along a longitudinal center axis between a proximal end and a distal end. A throttle grip is on the distal end of the tiller body. An idle speed control switch is located on the tiller body adjacent the throttle grip. A microcontroller is located inside the tiller body and is in signal communication with an engine controller of the engine. The idle speed control switch is a momentary switch that can be selectively electrically connected to the microcontroller. In response to actuation of the idle speed control switch, the microcontroller sends a signal to the engine controller to change an idle speed of the engine.
