06 R1 Starting Trouble

So my 2006 R1 just stopped starting on me out of the blue. Started cranking slow so I assumed it was the battery. Got a new battery and it didn't fix the problem so next I checked all the fuses and relays per the service manual. Everything checked out good on the fuses and relay/solenoids. From there I replaced the spark plugs and ignition assemblies. Still wont start using the electric start BUT if I roll start it, it starts fine and runs great and if I let it run for 5 mins or so and turn it off, I can start it right back up with the electric start. After it sits for an hour or so it goes back to not starting. Any Ideas??????
