overheating?

Probably need more info.... has a full tuneup been performed? Carbs synched, float height checked, timing, check plugs, valve clearances, etc.? If all is in check, I'm guessing the coil is about to shit the bed or a loose plug wire. Pull your plug caps off the wires and check to make sure the leads are getting good contact.

When it sounds like it starving out for gas, it probably is. You say everything is clean. Are you sure or do you assume? There is a filter INSIDE the tank when you take the petcock off the tank. That could be dirty.

detach the fuel lines from the carbs and put them in a jar. turn the petcock on. Nice fast flow or does is dribble? To me, 'around the block' is about one full float bowl wich is slowly getting some extra during the ride.
My money is on gasflow.

but more info or vid would be nice!
