Default 03 Honda trx 250ex not running right and smoking

So I was riding it and it just died instantly. It smokes a ton and barely runs at full throttle but if I turn the gas off it'll run fine but won't idle. I changed carbs a few months ago to some 25 dollar one off ebay, cause it didn't run right and it ran great for a while just leaked gas a little cause the hose was shot. But I changed hoses a few days ago and left a bit of extra hose so if I need to cut it someday to get new hose. I don't know if it's getting way to much cause it doesn't use a fuel pump and maybe the extra bit of hose is causing something but gas will literally be leaking from the exhaust or something that is(smells like gas anyways could just be oil and gas from not firing) . I plan to get a dirt bike soon anyways but I'd like to have the thing around I've been riding it since my dad bought it in 08. Smoke seems to just be white I don't really see any blue in it or anything maybe.

Cheap carb's don't last long. Rebuild and clean your orginal.
