There was a thread a week or so ago about "difficult to start when hot", with a number of GREAT suggestions, but most of them were to do with carb issues. If it won't turn over when warm, but will when cold it sounds to me like a battery issue, rather thana starter motor. I'd get your battery checked out first, but if you 'think' it is undersized, it probably is!!!

What sort of battery do you currently use, and where is it mounted?
