Default Starter Problem

I have a 2008 Ultra Classic with 70,000 miles. When the bike is warm I have an intermittent starter problem. When I hit the starter button the starter whines as if it is going to start the bike but the starter does not engage. After reengaging the starter button, it will usually start as normal. Does this sound like a bendix problem or maybe the starter itself? Note it seems to happen only when the bike is warm. Thanks for any ideas.
