I have had that issue myself on a similar motor. I have never figured out a cause, but I have been able to mitigate it. When you go to restart, advance the throttle and let her run at 1500RPM for a few minutes, until she runs normally. Also, give her a minute of idle time, before turning her off. I think the issue is heat soak.

When it does this pull the cover and check to see if you have spark....
