hard hot startin' 1427: a probable solution!!!!
I am not claiming victory yet, but it seems that my hard hot starting bike is "fixed", hopefully...
Thanks to Mika's suggestion, i replaced the starter, took bike for a couple hour blast of some back roads and it had no problem whatsoever starting after gas and cig stops. 85-90 degrees worth of Texas humidity, and some blasts up to 11k in 6th.
The old starter had scores and black filth on the armature, and the pickup brushes also looked grungy. I probably could have gotten away with some emery cloth and brake cleaner, but I'm just happy it seems to be "fixed".
Thanks Mika, you DA MAN!!!!
