not sure if this is related to your glitch but with my R1 i occasionally turn the ignition on 'half heartedly' and it won't start, just a tired barrel i reckon. I do find squirting a bit of lube done there keeps the problem at bay (oo-er!)

:(

thought of that but can that happen after riding a while though ?

Wot Monkey said, I had the same symptoms and one of the connections was loose.
