Check the main jet, could be some dirt plugging it. I guess I am not sure what carb they run but that is where I start. It would still probably idle because that is mostly the pilot jet but as soon as you start to lift the needle it goes to main jet.

+1 for the checking the jets. install a small gas filter. your good to go. it sould be easy to figure out. at least it will sit there and run.

Not sure about the moto 4, but it probably has one of them crappy parking brake sensors on it that could be stuck/bad.
