Actually, most of my riding is for long rides. I had just returned from a 350 mile trip before this started. BUT I had signs of trouble ahead with intermittent difficulty in starting for the past few weeks. I told the dealer this when I took it in for the 12 month checkup and they found nothing wrong.

They are getting it back today and I told them to keep it overnight and try starting in the morning. My luck, it'll fire right up...
