It has plenty of fuel and everything?
Does it smoke at all?

Is it getting really, really hot? If so, it could be losing compression and that is what causes the bog. I've seen em cool down and run again before.

Losing compressing basically means your piston and rings are wore and when they won't hold compression, you have no power. The more compression, the more power. But coming out a dieing when hot is more common with 2-strokes, 4 stroke will usually run a long time even on low compression.

If it is a 300ex it's a 4 stroke. Anyway you can post a picture of it? That might help too.

Are you putting mixed gas in it? Usually that wouldn't hurt a 4-stroke anyways, but it could be fouling the plug.
