NC30 cutting out

so my NC30 is all MOT'd taxed and "on the road" for the 1st time since i got it, the carbs have been cleaned by me and its had a service, new oil filter etc.
I've fitted a brand new reg rec and battery too.
now when I take it out for a run, it starts first time, with 1/2 choke for the 1st min or so then just idles nicely with no choke.
I get about 5 mins into a ride then the bike starts to lose power, and tails off until it cuts out completely.
so I switch off, leave it for 5 mins and it starts up again like nothing has happened.
this has happend the last 2 times I took it out, does anyone have any ideas what could be causing it?

Vacuum pipe on the petrol tap,
Check that you have put in the right position on the tap,
It's a common mistake made by many.

I'm pretty sure rick Oliver still sells them as I got a vacuum hose from him. The list is on the v4 general page at the top
