07 Buell Blast won't stay running

[Kpeterson159]

Hey guys, I've recently bought an 07 Buell Blast with 2,394 miles on it, i've put new signals on it, replaced the oil and oil filter, and even took apart the carb to clean the jets, when i bought it the owner said she hadn't ridden it in a little over a year because of a biking accident (on a different bike of course), it's got a brand new battery on it as well, the engine turns when I'm attempting to start it, and it will crank up (it sounds great while it's running too, just like a Blast should) my only problem is that it isn't staying running! it's driving me insane because i can't figure out why it won't stay running! My neighbor (who has ridden his entire life and lives to work on bikes) says that i should buy a carb rebuild kit off ebay/amazon, is that what i should do? i'm only asking for a general consensus, some people have said it could be the boot, others have said to check the seals on the carb and they all look fine, it will throttle up but then it dies out shortly after that… some one please help me! i just want to ride my new bike!
