So just recently my beloved commuter has been giving me lots of grief. Head gasket leaking, buring tons of oil and now the idle drops to below 800 rpms and the engine dies soon after. This only happens after about 30+ miles. Annoying. It will start right up but I have to blip the throttle to keep it running. A royal pain in traffic. Could this be a fuel filter? Im at a loss and getting overwhelmed here. Today my riding buddy picked up a new 800xc. I don't want to quit on my Girly. Please help!

Check the tank vent isn't blocked.......
Good call Bob. Is that one of the ones that is around where the fuel lines go into the tank?
Yup, one's tank vent the other is water drain. If you use the search button I did a thread a long time ago on cleaning it out.
