Hi Vincenzo

Have a look under the bike, you should see a rubber breather hose dangling down, these get blocked with water VERY easily on Trumpies, has happened on both my 07 America and 05 Thruxton. I cut it shorter by about 5cm and on a 45 degree angle which makes it much harder for the water to settle in the tube. When the breather tube gets blocked the engin gets starved of fuel.

Cheers
Rob
