This morning on the way to work my bike started behaving like it has fuel starvation. Idle is just slightly off and up/down, and in gear at constant throttle it seems to be surging. Performance is not 100% but it gets to 120 fairly easily, probably not as fast as before. This morning the symptoms cleared on the way to work, but as soon as I started it at work it was back, and stayed all the way home. On the overrun it crackles and pops more than usual as well.

Has anyone had issues with the pump or filter, or something else I can look at?

I filled up yesterday morning before leaving for work, and had no issues to work or back, which is 50km together. Tank was almost empty, probably 2l left. Filled up at the same place I always fill up.

Any ideas?
