My buell blast will turn on and idle well. when you put in first and take of it will ride about 5 mph as long as you'd like. any faster and it chugs out. looses power/stops getting gas. it also backfires out of the intake/carb. does this mean it needs to be cleaned? will treating the fuel system with sea foam help?

Check the "boot" that attaches the carb' to the intake. It's a common failure on Blasts.
Good luck!
