Fuel filter

Fuel filter
Hi all, It may sound like a silly question but where is the fuel filter located on the VTR. Was at Phillip Island on Tuesday and it was playing up a bit and it was suggested it may be staving of fuel so if some one could tell me that would be useful. The Island was magnificant with the new resurfacing of the track.

There's a fuel filter / screen inside the tank. (see part no. 3)
You'll need to be a bit more descriptive....

Well I can't lie wasnt me. Dont go to the racing much anymore. I did a track day at the island (March 12) and after first session it was missing and farting on over run out of honda cnr which is about 180 down to about 60-70kph very quickly.
So next run I kept revs down to under 7K and it didnt carry on so much. But dawdleling along the straight at 190kph was crap. Anyway it was better, the tyre mechanic guy said it may be filter. I looked in workshop manual and could find nothing. Last session (we had six) i let fly and it went ok again. So now I dont know. HAs anybody fitted filters. Seems odd not to have any.
What is the Petcock or what does it do ?
Signed almost famous old fart

Yeah, a clogged filter would cause fuel starvation at high and sustained rpm. Really dont think the stock screen would behave that way but it too could be mucked up I guess.
Carbs not flowing correctly could contribute to the condition. I have also seen it be an ignition problem as the coils only faulter at hi & sustained rpm, or require more current than the system provides.
