I have the same issue with my bike as well, but now it won't start at all. The battery was good, but I think it might be drained. Started it one day, started fine, rode it about 2 blocks, shut it off for gas, then when I went to start it again, it would barely turn over. I tried a few more times, then the starter wouldn't even make it. I didn't want to do any damage to the starter, so I stopped. I have no idea what is going on, but when I jump it, it will start no problem at all. Any ideas would be great.

Underneath the kickstand, there is a small hidden safety switch. A shot of WD-40 in the spring usually keeps it up to par!
