I have a 2000 honda recon I recently purchased, it has very low use on it. When I bought it, it spit and sputtered with no power, I cleaned the carb and now it runs great, it fires up instantly with no choke when its cold. After about 15 minutes of hard riding it backfires alot then dies, it will only start if the choke is on fully. I cleaned the carb twice thinking I might have missed something with no success. Any help would be great
