Okay...this dale has run perfect for two short weekend rides.......soo i go to start it up..starts fine..runs AWESOME..then on ce i shut it off.....it wont start again till it cools down. My first guess was too lean of throttle offset...soo i messed with that...no change..this was fine before,...now it wont start once warm..and need a pull, start......
WTF..anyone have an idea???

I messed with all the settings(ive tuned maps before...im not a rookie)...but this is jsut ticking me off. It ran perfect for two weekends now something is off. Dont jsut think mapping....what else can come loose or something to cause this....im thinking its a bad battery cause it turns over soo dang slow.(slower then usual)

It turns over and once in a while will almost fire but seems like its not getting turned over fast enough. And if i get pull started it runs perfectly fine. And again WILL start when cold or after its been ran..let it sit awhile and it will fire up. Im thinking week battery or something is screwy when its hot then goes back to normal once it cools down.

It certainly could be a battery or charging issue - test for both (check those stator wires by the flywheel for update).
Have you pulled your spark plug to check for fouling or just over all appearance?
And of course the fuel filter/quick disconnects all good and not restricting flow?
As for throttle offset, this can be a very important setting change if your are having hot start issues caused by a lean condition. Adjustment should be from .5-1.0 if stock is set to 0 (which most were).
Your problem certainly sounds like a lean condition when hot IMHO. How close are you to the stock injection settings?

Sator wire update..isnt that the one were you WANT the wires not to be showing???.....and if they are.......what must i do to fix them??...cause ive forgotten the fix.

The Stator wire clamp under the flywheel cover would cut through the stator wires shorting them out. The update was some sleeving between the stator wires and that small clamp. Check service bulletin SB02-009.
