Sounds to me like a lean problem. Looking at your setup I think your settings are for stock cams, etc. I don't think the float is the problem but could be jets and needle.

to me it seems like the bike is burning all the fuel out of the float boal then the float drops and re fills the boal and the bike picks up again... i had the carbs apart today and everything is clean and the floats move freeley

mine does the same thing...usually only when I am going over 60. Feels like its sputtering and wants to die. Did you ever figure out what was causing it?
