My bike's been running fine for a while now, but it started dying again earlier like it used to. It only happens in the rain, basically what happens is it will be running fine for a while all the way through the powerband and all of a sudden when I pass 6/7 thousand revs it will slowly die, most of time I can keep it going by giving it throttle but sometimes it will die completly and it will take a while to get going again. Anyone have any ideas what this might be? The last time it happened I changed the head + base gaskets and skimmed the barrel/head. 
I'll try and get a video the next time it happens.

Spray it all with wd40 as well, that keeps the damp out of the electrics
