    hi could be 10/15 miles just about enough to cause a vacuum in the tank worth a go with the petrol top off could be cheap fix

    Can not help with fuel tap position never had a trophy some of the early triumphs had a bad design fuel tap that could starve the carbs of fuel their was a mod but that's as much as I know. also try side stand switch and kill switch bat leads you never no
