Impssible hot start?
Hey everybody,I'm in a bit of a jam and I am looking for ideas. A bit of background on the bike,it only uses two fuses. Ignition and tail lamp. The fuel tank is on/off and it has been jetted for drag pipe and pod filter. When I finished building In the winter I would have to crank it a bit if it was below 40f but i never even had to use the choke at 50 or warmer. I was riding today and it was beautiful at 80f and I was just crusing fine until I stopped by a leather bar to talk with a buddy that was working the door. Drank some coffee and was going to leave when my bike decided it no longer wanted to start. I had to clear the chamber completely of fuel by cutting gas flow and cranking WOT for about three minutes than the damn thing still didn't want to run. It is running fairly rich and the air filter has seen cleaner days but what am I missing here? I had to crank it over for almost 2o minutes than all the sudden it jumped to life. It has no problem running but starting is aweful! Is there anything I need to check or do? Thanks In advance for any advice.
