When was the last time you rode it? What was the last thing you did before you put it away?

The carb need's cleaning is my guess. I would pay special attention to the pilot jet and the ventury tube or the emaultion tube what ever you want to call it.

Start with a spark plug it's cheap then look into the pilot and main being gummed up

Definitely a carb issue, change out the gas and clean the carb, may be pilot jet but I would aim for the main jet.
most of the time if its pilot jet it will be idle, if it had to have the choke to run I would suspect the pilot but upper end would probably be pilot
