Did you change/clean your air filter?If so you could have gotten some bad gas.

has it been sitting for a month before you rode it without anything done to it u might just want to open your carb and clean that and maybe even you fuel lines. my suzuki does that to me sometimes if i dont ride it for a long time it wont run very good usually ends up being debris in the fuel systems that settled.
