My overriding thought is that you have a fuel issue. I would start at the fill neck on the tank..check the gas cap to make sure it's venting OK. Check the tank for rust, dirt or water. Check your fuel lines to ensure fuel is running without blockage.

Pull your carbs, dismantle and check the Tees on the inlet side. Any blockage?

Check you floats for proper height. Check your float valves...do they open and close easily? Does fuel flow through them?

Unscrew the choke valves and clean them.
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.
