    check the float bowl.. sounds like its running out of fuel atn full throttle so check the bowl, check your fuel tap (replace)

    it cant be the rings or anything i dont think, i mean it will start up straight away and have full power only does it when going faster on straight long roads, im running a br8 in there when it should be a br9 could this be a problem ?

    not a major problem, just running it a bit hot, change the sparky and have a peek at the carb pal ;)

    im not too sure mate...
    i cant think it would be anything else because it only does it when its proper warmed up
    you can feel it when it gets hot its loses its grunt like..
    must be the sparky
