Default Hot engine won't start

02 flhrci.
After a ride, and engine is hot, it won't start until it sits awhile,
which may be due to cooling off.
Has just 6k miles, pampered.
Chrome starter has maybe 1k miles.
big bore, 204 cam, dyna jet fuel gizmo.
when cold, starts fine, runs fine.

any thoughts ?
