As mentioned, try to see what codes, if any, have been thrown..... That's always the best place to start... it can usually point you in the right direction to start your diagnosis..
Barring any codes, If you have a fuel pressure gauge, you should check the fuel pressure at the tank fitting..
In a 2001 bike, several things could be happening in the tank to cause a fuel pressure or fuel flow issue, ie: peeling tank liner, pinholes in the pump/regulator hoses, etc, etc...
If the pressure is good at the tank valve, then you know to start looking downstream from the tank.. Injectors, numerous sensors, etc...
Good luck with your diagnosis..
