stalling, cutting out at power VT750 Ace

Hi all,

I have a 2001 VT750 Ace the other day i was riding about 60 mph and got on it after a coner and it started to stall and die. It acted like i had no fuel which i had just put gas in it, got it home check the spark plugs and wires drained the carb bowl thinking there was water in it and today i drained the gas tank and there was no water in the gas tank. I dont know what else to do with it. It will run for about half way to work 10-15min then start stalling and die and i have to give it a little bit then try and start it and it will start and stay running. Today it did it 4 times on my way to work but it only died once the other 3 it kept running. Any help i would appricate it thanks

Just thinking whether it is an electrical problem or fuel related...

Could it be your kill switch playing up? Not sure if there is a fuel filter connected inline which may have got clogged? (Don't think there is one but you never know).
