you can try spray in carb cleaner too, remove aircleaner, raise slider in carb with finger or something and spray a bunch in there, let it sit overnight to get to work and try next day
also if fuel is old then get fresh

It could be as simple as the cables need lube...buy a small tool made specifically for oiling the cables from the grips down (you can get it at the dealership)....if after several attempts (It will need to penetrate all the way down the inside of the cables), it doesn't change contact me again.

2005 Yamaha v star 650 losing power
What Exactly does the bike do when it 'loses power'? This will give clues as to where the issue could be. When was the last time the bike was given a major service? Sometimes it can be as simple as a dirty fuel/air filter or an old/worn or dirty spark plug.

1995 Yamaha Virago 535. It runs good for about 7 miles then starts backfiring?
- Fuel System Issues:
- Check the fuel system for clogs, such as a dirty fuel filter or carburetor jets.
- Ensure that the fuel tank and fuel lines are clean and free from debris.
- Consider adding a fuel system cleaner to help clean out any deposits.
- Ignition System Problems:
- Inspect the spark plugs for fouling, wear, or improper gap.
- Check the ignition timing to make sure it's set correctly.
- Inspect the ignition coils and wiring for any loose connections or damage.
- Air Intake and Exhaust Issues:
- Examine the air filter for clogs or dirt that may restrict airflow.
- Inspect the exhaust system for any leaks or blockages.
- Vacuum Leaks:
- Check for vacuum leaks in hoses, gaskets, or intake boots. A vacuum leak can cause an improper air-fuel mixture, leading to backfiring.
