well for the last couple of rides i have noticed that when the engine is hot and i switch it off ,maybe to refuel that when i hit the starter it sounds like a dead battery turning over really slow.Let go of the button then press again maybe 4 or 5 times and it will fire up.i know that a hot engine can do this but this is after riding normally not hard.My thoughts are valve adjustment needed or possible ignition timing although the bike runs perfectly,just wondered if anyone else had had this happen before.
