I remember when my '88 900s would not start on real cold mornings it was due to sparkplug gap too wide; make the gap .024 or .025 in.
Also, there was a PSI bulletin (6/92) that specified a hotter plug...
NGK BCP 5ES.
Another time it would not start, I think two of the plug wires were shot.
Lastly, there was a tech service bulletin (03/91-0093) that stated your hard start when cold condition may be caused by high ground circuit resistance. I installed a new, shorter ground wire to the power stage found at the coil. Hope these ideas help... let us know.
