Alright pulled carb completely apart.  And have found nothing that would make it stick.  enrichment valve diaphram looked alittle questionable.  I have an new one so I will go ahead and replace it.  Needle jet wasnt clogged up at all.  Diaphragm assemble in the top also look questionable.  It does slide up and down when in the carb but is alittle slow to come back down.  I was thinking maybe the spring isnt any good anymore??

The diaphram just looks kind of winkled like it is old.  Also the slide has a bunch of black stuff all over it  I will try to clean it off the best I can.  also the slide has some scoring marks all the way around it.

will go get some 600 grit this afternoon thanks for the help I hope it works.   Do you have any idea what that black stuff is??  Maybe old gas??

Well I completly cleaned and dismantled carb put it back togather and it is still not wanting to run.  When I first put the carb back on it it fired right up with the choke and ran like a new bike.  But then it wouldnt stay running.  After trying to start it a couple times with choke again it just would not start.  Anyone think I should start looking at the coil or some other eletrical problem??  There is no way it could be the carb there isnt any dirt in it it is so clean I could eat off it.

I bought that pet thingy brand new and the tank had been cleaned out.  It has really got me stumped.

Remember that the carb basically has three fuel circuits.  Low speed, mid and high.  For the low, the pilot jet and air mixture screw (pilot screw, low speed mixture screw ....pick one).  Then for mid-range the needle comes into play.  After that is the main jet.

So, if you can idle with the choke on but not without it, that means you need more fuel at low speed.  I would adjust low speed mix screw in both directions to find out where the "too lean" and "too rich" points are.  If you can't get to the too rich point, then either there is small amount of unseen dirt (Holes are small, doesn't take much) or the mod's done before you got the bike require more fuel (because it's getting more air now) and you need a bigger pilot jet.

Next, sounds like it bogs when you hit the throttle.  Well, that is the hard one to diagnost.  If it is just above idle then it's the needle circuit (diagphram/slide assembly thingy). IF you are bogging down due to too much fuel, the spark plug will be getting black.  If you are bogging down from lack of fuel, spark plug will be clean(er).  Lack of fuel would be a modification of the white spacer.  Too much fuel I think is diagphram (never had to play with this so the forum may need step in here).

If you get the bike rolling but bogs when you hit the throttle to get into traffiic, then would be in main jet circuit.  Puff's of black smoke when rev'ing are an indication of too rich.  Too lean would manifest itself in multiple ways (blue'ing pipes, back firing (w/ no smoke).  Spark plug again is your eyes as to what is going on inside the chamber.  

Hope this helps you look at the correct circuit to concentrate on.

I would first get the bike to idle without the choke.

Air filter is also new

That sounds reasonable to me!
