odd starting problem

Just put a new head gasket,air filter,plugs and gpz500 cams in my 92 kle. she starts no problem and runs perfectly. if i stop her for 2mins she will start again no problem.

BUT

If i leave her for say 5mins she wont start,just turns over on the button making no attempt to fire up. She will start again after about 20mins and runs perfectly.

Any ideas folks?

No start

My KLE wont start if I use the starter. Either jump start or it's own battery. But if I give it a shove down the sidewalk, and push start it, it start immediately.

I currently left it with Le Cap. Will let you know what he finds out. In the mean time, see if it run starts when it does not want to start with the starter.
