I have the same problem with mine and I just wasted some good money on it as well can't kick start it when it's cold so I have to push start it till it turns on just to warm up the bike but its still takes a while to push start after its warm it kick starts quick but if I leave it off till it gets cold I have to resort to push starting it again its pretty frustrating and unreliable seems like mine has the same problem as yours I hope you find a solution for yours and maybe this topic you made could help me with mine
