had this problem, dad fixed it. when it was hot, it didn't have enough power to turn the started motor, and just clicked, u know the noise that it makes, well yea, i got new battery, changes starter motor, and my dad hooked up some extra shit to the starter motor, like a relay or sumfin, and it's all good now.

sounds like all the fuel is evaporating from the resivour in the carby when its hot.... hence the reason it will only start with the foot flat.... pump the accelerator quite a bit to prime it and see how u go...
