Lose of power when medium/hard throttle pull
Ive been riding my uncles 1996 750 yamaha virago and it has been running just fine until a few days ago. It idles just fine, when i go through the gears and barely pull the throttle its ok, then when i try to give it more throttle it starts to sputter and will not speed up like it should?? What could be causing this issue??

Dirty carbs.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.
