Tyrant, what profile maxxis are you using, the standard tyres look close the to the chain guard, so don't want to get a wider tyre and have it catch.
Graham, I looked at removing the seal on my filler cap and thought it would let water in. On further inspection there is a valve in the cap, which has a plate over it. I drilled a hole in this plate in line with the valve and this seemed to eliminate the vacuum causing the bike to stall. In regards to the lack of fuel, have you dropped the bike, or had to keep the revs up a lot on trails? The temperature could also effect it possibly?

Looks nasty. Did you go morrocco with a lad called Paul Davies by any chance? Did you sort the fuelling issues with your bike?
