I bought my bike used. And even though I test rode it before buying it, I encountered this same problem while on a long ride my first day out. The problem seemed to happen when I had the throttle open for long periods of time. And I can tell you that it is no fun when you are in the far left lane of some highway doing 80+ mph and your engine decides to sputter and die. After draining my float bowl several times, the final solution to the problem for me was draining the entire gas tank. After pouring the gas into a large container, I could see a handful of little grains of sand in the gas. After putting clean gas back into my baby, she never had another problem. So, if you encounter this problem again in the future, you'll know what to do. MS A11
