Motorcycle Repair: Engine Bogging Down, honda ct 70, honda ct70

Question
Hello,

 I'm hoping you can help me with a situation I'm having with my bike, a 2004 Pagsta.  This bike apparently has a 97cc replica of a Honda CT 70 mini cycle engine.
 What happens is sometimes when I'm cruising along at sustained speeds of 40-45 mph, the engine bogs down, as if it isn't getting any fuel.  So, I pull in the clutch lever and start feathering the throttle until it "comes back to life."  And then it does it again and again, making for tedious riding at these speeds.  It seems to run fine at slower speeds.
 Thank you very much, and any information you can give me would truly be appreciated.

Steve

Hi Steve,

I suspect the fuel supply cannot refill the float bowl at higher speeds.
