Update:

Yep compressed air into fuel drain hole throws everything inside out!

Ignition coil replaced, and as I have roadsitalia pipes my raptor shakes a lot. So had checked every bolts... the 2 bolts in fuel cap (over red part) were kind of loose. Already rained and so far is doing good! Let's see next winter!

it's only taken 5 years but, I have found that one section of the choke or enrichment cable can seize while the cable can still work.
So the choke works when cold but the one of the enrichment circuits stays on after the choke has been closed.
The bike can run fine for up to 500kms then one of the plugs will blacken and a misfire will begin.
You can change plugs, balance carbies etc but please check your single into double choke cable as sometimes one side can seize.
