Engine starts and runs fine up to 2000 RPMs and then bogs down with any further throttle. Can't find any restrictions in the fuel line. Any suggestions?

Blocked jets or airway in carbs?
Fresh fuel?
What's service history? Could be mucky since old juice has "varnished" up in carbs from standing too long.
Is fuel tank vent open? Fuel line primer valves good?

So many possibilties, check these first, one by one and come back to us.

Good luck buddy!

Remove and strip the carbies as it appears you have a blocked high speed jet or two
