Same problem here, doing 70 bike backfired really loud, shut off and would only crank after that. After 30 minutes of fiddling around got it to start for a few seconds then died. 1 hour later got it to run but it was horrible. One cylinder strong, rear one was intermittent. 2 hours later started back up after cleaning plugs, ran like nothing ever happenned. Long story short it was my ignition module. Mine is in my nose cone, yours should be to, i believe but not sure. Engine gets warm, ignition module fails, engine cools down, module works. Just to be safe check your coil first. It is alot easier to replace.
