Sounds like your running on half the cylinders. Check the headers after riding it a few miles or idling for a few minutes and see which ones are hot. I spray water on them to listen for the sizzle.Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

Check the fuel supply to those two. Do you have a kinked fuel line? Do you have an in-line filter that may be plugged? If fuel level in the tank is pretty low, try putting the petcock on prime or reserve.Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

Not knowing the condition of the tank when you started, did you pull the petcocks out and check the filters? Have you verified good fuel flow form the petcocks?
1 and 2 are fed from one fuel source, and the way it was running sounds like fuel starvation. So I am focusing on the fuel source to the carbs.Life is what happens while your planning everything else!
