Hard to start when hot...

Well, I just noticed this the other day on 99 996 when I went to get some gas and station is a good couple of miles away. I pulled in, shut the bike off and filled her up. I went to start the bike and it didn't want to start unless I gave it a little throttle.
Once it started it ran fine again. I noticed this once before after letting the bike run in the garage for a while 15-20 mins or so and then it would do the same thing.

I think a good solution will be to haver the bike dyno tuned to smooth out any little quirks about it b/c it also seems to not want to stay at a consistant RPM when the throttle is held open at X-rpm.
TB's may need a little adjusting or something.

Let me know you thoughts guys.

I had that previously too. I guess its about the fueling, since mine runs ok now, after good tune up.
