Main relay has NOTHING to do with the delayed starter action. (But that doesn't mean the soldering job was wasted effort either.)

It might be worn out contacts inside the starter solenoid, or worn-out brushes in the starter motor itself. Someone (Hondadude??) has posted a picture & instructions about replacing those contacts. Or you may want to just replace the starter assembly.

Check that the two wires that are connected to the starter are one securely. Its quick and easy to check.
