Africa Twin keeps stopping as if no fuel

[colesyboy]

Hi guys,

Not sure if this is a fuel pump problem, but my bike has stopped like it runs out of fuel all of a sundden, then I turn everthing off and wait for 10 mins, need to apply choke and then notice that it will idle but any more throttle kills it. Then try 2 or 3 more times with and without choke and it starts - albiet with a feeling of slight loss of power.

This has happend 4 times now on my journey around the americas in the past 5 months. I feel that I need to do something about it, but not 100% sure that it is the fuel pump problem.

I'm not a mechanic, but can do the simple maintenence stuff.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers,
Brian
