Sounds like fuel filter tube to me. I had a bike one time that would only use a half tank of fuel then stop. Let it sit for a while and enough would finally seep through the tube screen / filter and it would start again. It would then run long enough to run out of gas again. I pulled the fuel shutoff valve out and the filter screen tube was almost solid half the way up from trash (rust in tank). Replaced it and then no problems.

+1 on this....common and yes you have one or your reserve would be non functional, as it also contains the "tubes" for the different fuel levels. Previous owner had removed this on my bike...so I didnt have a reserve...when it ran out and I switched to reserve....it was really out! Also caused crap to get into my float bowl and clog jets....

Thanks George. Would you be able to take a pic of exactly which one you're referring to? I'm still learning.
