Hi Chris
I would look at the battery then the filters.
Simple things first. Check how old it is you should probably get one for piece of mind if its older than 2 years, especially if its been in storage for most of its life.
After 3 months of riding my New 04 model the battery gave up the ghost. I could get it to start then it would stop.
Gradually it got worse and I couldnt start it at all.
New battery under warranty no problem.
Another thing to think about is where was the last servo you filled up at. If it was somewhere out the back of Bourke you may have contaminated fuel which might need diluting or draining Have you run it low it might have picked up some crap at the bottom of the tank. Is this your first tank full since buying the bike.
Might be best to look at those filters anyway, especially if it has been done before. Its a job you can do and at least you will know before sending it back to the shop.
Good Luck
