Default Random hard start when hot

This first happened a few weeks ago. After about 20min of 110mph riding down the freeway we pull off to make a phone call. Turned the bike off for about 45 seconds then went to turn it back on. It cranked and sounded like it hit so I let off the button. The bike died. No biggie, I must have let off at the wrong time, its happend before. I hit the button again. The bike again sounds like it hit and is going to go but I hold the button anyways. It keeps firing on at least one cylinder but wont start until I open the throttle slightly, then it starts and idles perfect. Didn't have anymore problems for a week.

I went to myrtle beach SC for 4 days. When I come back and start the bike up its idling really low, about 800rpm. I take it out for a ride and all is good again.

Then today I get pulled over by a cop. After about 10min of the bike off I go to leave and get the same situation as #1 where it hits but won't start without throttle. Im at just under 12,000miles, the bike is an 06, any ideas? I doubt its the FPR as the bike runs great, has no lack of power anywhere in the RPM range and only does this once in a while.

No warrenty, I don't let people work on my vehicles, and I don't have any friends left at the dealership who could do the warrenty paperwork and give me the parts.
