That shouldn't have any effect.
It's interesting how some bikes start differently after sitting for more than a couple of days.
I can understand how an engine with carbs could have issues due to fuel sitting in the floatbowls that could lose volatility, but with a F.I. engine that shouldn't be an issue.
My F.I. bikes always start right up after sitting over the winter with treated fuel, so 9 days shouldn't be much of a problem.
Some times cracking the throttle slightly while cranking a F.I. engine can help a cold-start problem.
