Try squeezing the primer ball while running. If the problem stops, the problem may be the fuel pump.

Yamahas have very small idle and high speed orifices. This accounts for the fuel efficiency, but they are very susceptible to clogging. You may have to take the carb off and clean out the orifices (jets).
