My 2015 Gladius seems to have a problem with starting.
I turn the key on neutral with side stand down and let the fuel pump prime. Then I pull the clutch lever and press starter. The headlight dims and nothing happens. It starts after several attempts.
It's not the battery because it happened even right after I recharged it at home. Also, the voltage of the battery and charging current are correct.
This problem has started couple of months ago and it slowly getting worse. From occasional need to press starter twice to daily need to do it several times.
