yeah i'd agree with the other lads that its most likely carb icing. but carb icing is not necessarily that the carb itself is freezing its where water vapour in the air freezes as it goes through the carbs and it can effect bikes at certain revs depending on the atmospheric conditions. like you could be riding along at 50 and all of a sudden your speed drops to 40 or whatever. foggy conditions are the worst for it. here's a good video of it happening
Carb Icing on my VMax
you can get an additive that helps to stop it happening http://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-809-silkolen...gines.aspx i'd say its more likely to be carb icing than carbs being out of balance because how can carbs go out of balance by the bike not being used for a few weeks?
