Clean the carb (all jets and passages), adjust the float and idle, check air filter, adjust the valves, adjust cam chain, check timing, then go from there if necessary.

Had a similar prob with mine in the beginning...turned out I was setting the float to the wrong spec.
Correct setting is 26.5 mm from gasket surface of carb body.

thank-you so much, as a beginner, this seems to be a big project.....Time to learn!
