Possibly the small lead wire going to the starter solenoid has corrosion in the connector. It’s down on your starter kinda hidden. Mines all torn apart so I’m not sure if you can teach it w/ air box installed. On my P2 I have the same issue and enough room to just reach in and barely touch the wire and it starts every time, even hot.
