Carbs?

Check your needles they may look clean but could be shot also check your cdi box could be shorting out or even have moisture in it anther thing to check but it would be hard starting is your plug caps they could be cracked.Just a thought but did you drain the old gas?

Clutching

In addition to what Watts said, check out your primary clutch spring. If it's sacked out or broken your sled will bog and otherwise run like it has fuel delivery issues. Good luck...jmho
