I pulled the CBR out of the garage today (only 1650 miles on it so far). Hadn't been started since probably Wednesday, so only 2 days of sitting around. After turning it on, I hit the starter and I hear the engine kick over then it immediately dies. I push the starter again and it absolutely will not start. I turn the throttle a tad while turning it over again, then It fires up, and sounds like one of the cylinders is misfiring for a second or two, then it starts to idle as normal. Rode to work and everything was great, but for a brand fucking new bike, this is the last thing I'd expect.

Anything I should keep my eye out for? Or ear for that matter? What in the world would have possibly caused it to not start?
