Default start issue

Hello all.
I have a 2018 SGS.On the last couple of rides when I first go for a ride and stop to get gas or whatever when I try to restart the bike I get nothing just flashing lights.Whe I turn ignition switch off and wait a few minutes it will start and run with no other issues.I'll ride all day and stop and start and it doesn't do it again.Only at the first stop whether I rode 10 miles or 50.Any ideas what could cause this.
Thanks in advance.

The security lights(Front and rear Flashers) I changed out the key fob battery thought it could be that but it wasn't.
Thanks bud.

Get the battery tested to rule it out as an issue.
