Default Weird starting problem with CBRF2

Okay im having a weird starting issue and thought id lace it here as well to get a broader view of opinions as to whats going on here as i still havnt been able to get her to fire up right.

Symptoms:
-Slow turnover when trying to start cold.
-Will bump/push start with ease
-once started it runs completely fine

Trying to start her cold she wont go, choke on or off. Sounds like its turning over rather slow. If you push start it you can get it to fire up right away! after its up and running i can turn it off go inside for 30 minutes come back out and she fires right back up! but let it sit for an hour or so and let it cool off its back to no starting with the starter. Like i said when its running its running great, good throttle response, runs really smooth! It has a new r/r a new cdi box, new plugs, new oil, all the works but still giving me issues! SOMEONE HELP!!!!!

Couple of things spring to mind. The condition of your battery & the viscosity of the oil.
With the oil, check what the viscosity rating is, if you live in an area that drops below or near to freezing, then your oil maybe to thick for the starter motor alone to crank it over.
