Check the float level and the choke plunger it is possible that one of these two may be your culprit.

^X2. if those check out ok, check your reeds in that cyl, and your plug cap on that cyl

If your carburetors are clean and properly set then it could be a faulty coil, trying switching coils with another and see if it makes a difference.

I use PR9EYA plugs. They have a solid cap. One less thing to chase down. My .02staggs65 said:^X2. if those check out ok, check your reeds in that cyl, and your plug cap on that cyl

I think he was referring to the actual plug wire cap...they have a resister in them and it is not uncommon for the resister to go causing plug fouling, misses ect.
Personally I have been replacing the plug caps every couple years[or when I think of it] on all my sleds as preventative maintenance.
