I have this same problem on occasion with my 796.  It started doing it when it was cold during its first winter.  Also it was after I modded the exhaust so i have no idea if that matters.  BUT after moving overseas the bike was in a crate for a few months and the problem got progressevly worse.  I put a battery charger on it for a few hours and she fired right up no problems.  IMO (and in my case) I just really need a new battery.  If she sits a few days without being fired up its almost a guarentee that it will give me the error.  I plan on buying a tender and having it on more often to help it.
