First ride on Apollo 250 Deluxe

Well that didn't go so good, it ran really good for about 2 minutes then it wanted to die thankfully I stayed close to home. I got it restarted and had to really work the throttle to get back. I parked it in the garage to let it cool down some, about 15 minutes then started it to see how it would idle. Just like my short ride it idled perfect, for about 90 seconds then died. Started it again and like my ride I had to work the throttle to keep it running but this time I noticed it missing really bad and making kind of a backfiring sound so I shut it down.
I'm open to any and all advice, tips or tricks. I think the first thing I'd like to do is replace the carb with the Mikuni from what I've read it sounds like a good choice.
That is in advance, Dean
