Default Hard start and backfire - thoughts?

Hey all -

05 FXDI - hadn't ridden in a couple of days, fired it up last night, nothing. Engine just turned over and over and backfired. Tried a few times, then gave it a little throttle while cranking and it fired up. On the way home, bike was warm, and started up no problems. Any thoughts?

Thanks!!

That's a mean-looking Bob, BTW.
