I keep going through batteries because the bike takes too many cranks to start.
Bike takes at 4 or 5 seconds and then I usually stop cranking. I'll turn the key off (too long cranking), and crank again. Sometimes I'll give it a little throttle which may help but there's a fine line where giving it too much throttle as it will flood it and/or cause a backfire. Then sometimes the bike will burn the fuel dumped into the TBs as you can see and smell the burned fuel.
It will start a "little" better warm but still takes too many cranks. It's frustrating. When it does start, it's starts off a slow idle for a second and will then pick up to a faster idle.
It NEVER starts right up. It ALWAYS takes a number of seconds (which is a long time) and I usually have to shut it down and start cranking again. Too much cranking and I keep going through batteries as I wear them down.

PCII
Stage I turbo but this has happened even before turbo was put on.
Injectors tested.
TPS is within range.
New plugs.
Runs great after starting.
Idles fine after initial hard start.
I may make a video so people can see what I mean.
