Default Starting while hot

If I ride then shut down to run inside somewhere real quick, my bike takes a second or two to turn over. This never happens from a cold start. Any idea what this could indicate?

Do you mean it won't fire-up, or is it like a starter issue?

Yes, EFI. It won't turn all the way over always. Sometimes I'll bump the throttle, then it will fire up.

Mine will sometimes act like that but I have noticed if I wait until the check engine light goes out and then hit the starter it fires right up.
