Couple questions
I have recently purchased this bike from a local dealer and I have rode everyday since. It runs good except on an occasional warm start it will run for a couple seconds then shut off, but starts right back up. I took a video clip of this for y'all to hear. My other question is does it sound to y'all like it has a different cam. I have listened to others that have cams and it sounds like them. The bike has 24,800 miles

As suggested above...a bit of a tuning issue. Most likely the motor is heat soaking and vaporizing some of the start-up fuel.

without the cable your screwed,it is possible it was a stg1 download(but unlikely).u would have to have the dealer flash it back to stock, tuning with a power commander could probably be done but with the ecm already changed a canned map is not going to work.
