Plastic tank so that's not the issue. He needs to strip and clean his carbs.

I have looked at two models,,2013 Ducati Multistrada (nice bikes but expensive to maintain),,met two owners at Abergavenny the other day ,one had a 2012 very nice 1200 model and another with a 2015 £16,000.00 bute

I will have to have a ride on an 800 model triumph to satisfy my interest.
Try and get the XRX instead of the spoked wheel XRC for a ride. Suspension travel/setup is different and the XRX is just that bit sharper. They were my thoughts a few months ago. Good shout on the Tracer as another viable option - good bikes but less quality than any others mentioned.

Good luck fella  :thumbup
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
