when switching the ignition on the fuel pump goes through initialization, pumping some fuel in... it sounds like the bike will run on that fuel, and once it's gone, she dies, and has no fuel to restart untill you reinitialise the pump...
it could be a big air bubble in the pump, or fuel filter? or maybe the line is pinched/partially plugged? maybe, since you run her almost dry, some crap from bottom of the tank made it in and dirtied the filter? hard to say, i'm just throwing some ideas that make sense to me...
Thanks smokey, kinda my thoughts too !

Have just tried a different tank and pump but still the same ! ?

Gonna take it apart further, keep those suggestions coming !
Cant ya just swap the tank/pump etc from other bike?
ooooops! too late!

Disclaimer: If you do crash you may have a bike screaming its guts out but in my case that option seemed better than me screaming my guts out (see "near death experience" on this forum).

Couldn't agree more jmann!
