Very old thread.

Sometimes weak battery will reveal weak starter clutch. Or vice versa.

I have never touched the throttle on fuel injected bike like OP does I always thought you were not supposed to
Probably best to start new thread or keep searching

Check for pin hole leaks in the fuel hoses inside the tank.
Do a search on it, it does exactly what your problem sounds like.

Suggested putting fuel pressure gauge on it.

Myself, I had 50k miles so figured just replace everything in tank. Pump and lines.
