Rebuilt motor, less that 200 miles on it. - Recently had the rotor and stator replaced..
So i took it out for a nice little ride. And after about 15 min, it starts to chug, (and backfire if i am stopped and revving the motor) and I have to goose the throttle to get it going.. If I give it too much throttle, it just sputters and lags. (in traffic this is not very fun, ahem.)
Anyone have any ideas for solutions? New plugs? Lower octane gas? (is 93 too high?) Adjust carb?

So, I replaced battery and newer colder plugs, (read some things about using colder plugs if you tend to thrash it and ride it fast) and it runs AMAZING!
Thanks to all for your help and input.
