Could be something as simple as bad gas try using a tank of premium blend

Fuel won't cause that symptom unless you're running something insane like nitromethane mix.

I think you need to pull the carbs and clean them.  You might try some additive first but usually there is no substitute for cleaning them.  Your problem is most likely in the idle air, pilot jet area. They are not hard to clean. Lots of information in the files section to read.
If you haven't done them before you might try to get another member in the area to give you a hand.

Sounds like a vacuum leak to me. Check intake boot clamp at carb,cap on top of intake, connection at intake to head is tight. Might be time to replace intake boot o rings.
