What kind of maintenance have you done to the bike in those 10k's?

Here's the service schedule for our bikes.

Obviously yours is well above the 18,000 mile cap they have on there but that should give you a basic idea of things that need done and when they should be taken care of.

As for your problem specifically, I'm far from an expert but all I can tell you is that shimming the needles worked for me, so it may be something you want to start looking into, at least until someone smarter than I gets in here to help you out

That, and a good carb cleaning won't hurt. I imagine there's quite a bit of build up in there after 34.5k miles.
