Default Sputtering and no throttle acceleration on Y8

This morning I didn't let my Y8 warm up to operating temperatures and when I was accelerating it would all of a sudden bog and giving gas does nothing.

So again from a stop I gas it and the rpms go to about 2500 and then it stops and pressing more gas does nothing so I shift to second and then it will gain speed and once I hit 2500 it bogs again.

WTF??

Check all of you ignition components. Could have a clogged filter too.
