I chased a problem like that for a while, finally took Nick's advice and found a NAPA store (not that common here) to get the replacement relays he listed in a post here. It still took quite a while to start this spring after sitting 5 months but otherwise has been reliable since the replacement. Took more searching than I expected, the relays are NAPA #AR-614

I would highly recomend having the bike "live" on a battery tender whenever not in use, I don't always have that option (only two bikes fit into the garage - the others "rest" in a tent between rides) but it certainly starts (and I think runs) better when "coddled"
