Default starting issue

I have a issue with start-up on my 07 Classic. Stock engine, k-n air filter, true duals. When cold it starts everytime no issue. When hot if it has been sitting 15 plus minutes it starts fine. If I try to start when hot like I have just stopped to pump gas maybe 2-3 minutes most time it sounds like the whole engine is coming apart, next attempt it will start fine. Only happens when hot and sits for a very short period of time and this is waiting on the light or not waiting does not matter. I read a post (I think) about the same problem but can not find anything using the search --- soooo anyone have this happen and anyone have a reason and hopefully a fix???
Thanks for the help
