Default hot restart issue

most of the time on my deuce if i shut bike off and turn back on less than 5 mins seems like it wants to start hard and have to end up opening throttle just a bit and its fuel injected btw,no other issues that that,was thinking maybe idle air control motor?

Are you waiting for the fuel to reach pressure after hitting run? Some have had luck not waiting, just hit the starter as soon as you hit the run button (hot starts only)

Also could be too much cranking fuel. that is a SERT or a way to adjust that in the ECM.
ColdCase is right about the starting procedure. Do you wait for the car or truck to finish pressuring up? Most don't even give that a though.
