Bike sputtering under acceleration

BAHHHH!

I was out riding tonight having a wonderful time just cruising and when I was on my way home my bike just started jacking up.

When I accelerate the bike starts sputtering, missing, and acting like it wants to die if I give it more then 1/4 throttle. This just started like 15 minutes ago on my way home. While I was out earlier in the evening I was doing roll on's getting the R's up above 8k and no issues @ all. It starts up and idles fine. Seems like all of a sudden I'm not getting gas to the engine.

If it were a fouled plug wouldn't it run like crap even @ idle?

My bike is a 01' bandit 1200.

Thanks for any input,
Half

Check all the vacuum and vent hoses.
