Fuel flow stops at higher-speeds

Fuel flow stops at higher-speeds

so my bike is a 2005 with about 24K miles on it. I can ride it all day at under 60 MPH with no issues at all, but once I take it onto the highway, run it for about 8 or 9 miles at 70 MPH then speed up to 75, drop down to 65 then try to go back to 70 I lost all fuel getting to the carbs and the engine stops.

I´ve already:
- cleaned the entire fuels system (carbs and all)
- changed the needles
- changed the fuel pump
