My guess is also vapor locking with the carbs. Definitely a problem in warm road conditions which I frequently have with my BN7 when idling on city streets in the summer. I Tried various cures with minimal success.

When its been running for 30 minutes or so, the throttle response is terrible.  The girl barely wants to get out of her own way.  Valves?  Any and all ideas are appreciated.
