yup,when you had it did it run well like do more the 100k in st,its so slow im embarrassed to go on along ride
I did notice slight misfiring or breaking down last say 3 months but I have not ridden it that hard last few yrs but I reckon the issue is only recent. I put new plugs in it thought was fixed but no. Seemed like fuel to me. I was actually testing it for that breaking down just before the accident. I tried good fuel, no difference. Sorry man I hope you find it. Must be something obvious you would think
I would never do 100kph in first.
I dont ride full on like that

Giddyups bike had the internal pump in the tank. The early 99's have the external pump and the pressure regulator is part of it. If that filter blocks the bike will flatspot BAD....They all eventually block up, when & where dependant on local fuel sedimentation levels.My 99 did it every 10,000 k's .
The other consideration is the possibility of an introduced fault assuming all was well before adjustments were made. If the filter is clear then at least that can be eliminated as a potential source of trouble.

maybe a simple method would be to borrow someones fuel tank, change the whole thing over and test or you may have another fuel tank Pete?

Internal pumps has a gauze type filter also, but look like a real prick to pull apart with out braking the plastic lugs, see if you can get it pressure tested first
