Having collected the bike and left it overnight in my garage I went out today to find there were issues starting it up. It kept failing like the battery had died. The battery had not died though as it was serviced / charged etc etc and on ignition the lights and all the usual dash workings occurred.

Anyway after much tries I think I flooded it so gave up. Then went in 10 minutes later and it started, just.

Is there something I should do / know when starting from cold?
