it will start fine and will ride for a couple of miles but once its warmed up it constantly cuts out and i have to wait 5 mins to restart it then i'll be lucky if it goes 500m without cutting out again, have dropped cleaned and checked the carb. it all looks and feels fine, any clues on what could be causing this?

I'd say 500 miles was pretty good. Twisted Evil

could be the coil breaking down ??

ride it till it stops then whip the s/plug out,
if its wet then its prob a leccy/ ignition fault
if its dry then carb/ breather/ tap prob

not a foolproof test but it should at least give you an idea of whats going on Very Happy
