Check the air filter make sure it's clean, also try it with the airbox lid off. Choke might be stuck open a little

Almost 90 percent chance that it's the carburator jetting. Very simple inexpensive fix.

there is a small screw at the bottom of the carb bowl(clear hose connected) that drains the bowl, maybe a little water in there. worth a try and good to do once a year anyway
