a friend of mines 450 had a problem this past summer, that he could only go half throttle if he put the throttle all the way it sputterd and chugged and died sometimes, it was real gutless a significant loss of power, and after trying everything(looking for carb ussues, exhaust problems, and pinched fuel lines, new spark plug,clean the air filter, you can try these things too.) it turned out to be a ignition coil, if any of your symptoms match these it could be a place to start.

make sure that the brake handles are all the way foword (if it has the option of starting in gear and the handle isnt all the way foward it will spit and sputter in reverse )
also drain the bowl on the carb you may have sucked some water in the carb if the 1 way check valve is bad .....

Welcome to the forum. Do as rich suggested and report back. It can be fuel/air related, electrical or mechanical. We need to narrow it down to make some good suggestions.

yeah but my buddy that had the bad ignition coil, his bike would start and run fine to, and if you didnt touch the throttle or if you put it on half way there was no problem at all, you couldnt hear a problem at all, his winch worked, lights worked, elec start worked, its once he got up over half throttle that the problems would kick in,

New to the forum.
I had the same thing happening last night so I logged in to see if anyone had an answer.
Pulled the top off the carb and found a tear in the diaphragm, used superglue as a temp fix and it is back to full power immediately.
Found gas coming out of the drain tube from the carb, the one coming out the bottom, figured it had to be fuel/air mixture.
Just my two cents, hope this helps.

Could have bad gas or the carb could be dirty. I had that problem and i did a little adjusting of the cables and stuff and i added seafoam to my gas can (heavy duty mixture of 2 ounces per gallon for the first 5 gallons and then nxt can fill up i put 1 ounce per gallon to keep it cleaning) mines been running good since.
