Ok so today I rode about 3km to the bank, got off, went inside did my banking and came out went to start the bike and nothing (just sounded like it was trying to start)... tried again, same deal. tried again and gave it alot of throttle and it started.... idled... and the idle gets slower and slower till it dies.
started it again the same way and just kept the trottle up and rode it home.... parked it up left it for 10 mins and tried starting it.... starts no problems....
What gives?

check the battery and the fuel filter.

Double shot!!
Does it take a good revv to clear its throat? Any black smoke from the exhaust after a problematic start?

no, just did it again, wouldnt start without giving her throttle.....

Just tried again to start it. Had to hold starter down for about 10 seconds and when it finally 'caught' ildes pretty low, sounds like it could stall at any time. Turn her off, and its easier to start the second time tho....

How many threads do you need to make for one problem? Rev it a bit and does it rev cleanly without bogging down?
"Wouldn't start without giving her throttle" - Well some bikes want throttle to start. Make sure you haven't accidenetly turned your idle way down or something.
Double shot!!
Ok its not flooding and hydraulicing. Does it spin over really well on the starter but not fire up? Or does it turn over rather slowly? Does it still push start easily?
