2006 Sprint Hard Starting When WARM problem

Hey guys!
I posted a thread about this awhile back and someone responded that they had the same problem and it was corrected at the dealer but I can't remember who it was?
Anyway my 2006 Sprint will sometime be VERY HARD starting when WARM or HOT. (I know about the cold start issue, just a quarter throttle cures that)
This is different.
Example, I stop for a break and 20 mins later she cranks and cranks and cranks and FINALLY will start after repeated attempts.
I'm going to call Peter at Triumph and see if he knows what it is.
The person who responded to my post before said it was a Clutch part that was bad....it was changed and he hasn't had the problem since.....I can't remember which clutch part it was though??

Is the Rat member out there that had this problem with his SPRINT??

Hard to start when hot?

I am having the same issue with my 2005 Sprint ST. Could you please forward me the thread that has the solution. Very frustrating to say the least. My buddies are giving me a hard time about British electrics, etc. (after they push start me )
