I know nothing about the bike but I had a bike once that did exactly the same - no-one could diagnose the problem as it was ok when cold, turned out the generator was overheating and needed replacing.


 -or in that particular instance, rewinding, wonder if anyone still does that?

There are re-wind companies still kicking around we have one in Great Yarmouth (STM Rewinds) and one in my native Bradford but I can't remember the name
