Strange phenomenon

We used to go to Brands Hatch a couple of times a year from the West Midlands and used to stop for a break somewhere north of London. There were two of us on Commandos and we both noted that our bikes ran noticeably smoother after the stop. The difference was enough for both of us to notice and comment. We hadn't refuelled, just stopped for about a half hour. We never figured out why but it happened on long trips often.

I always pull it onto the centre stand when I fill it. I wonder if it could be anything to do with that, maybe repositioning the ISO bushes or something?
 
Interestingly i find that my MK3 Interstate handles better when the tank is less than half full. Not surprising really when you consider the weight of a full tank
