Developed a bog during riding this weekend. not a deep powder mid range bog ect... im talking starts just fine, idles fine and bogs/cuts out upon depressing the throttle. Had to tow out. literally could not get it to advance. ok maybe a couple times for 10-20 feet. TSS would seem logical. thoughts?

Could be Fuel pump. Unplug fuel pump connector which is on the top of the tank. Hook up a 9 volt battery to the fuel pump connection on top of the tank and see if the fuel pump makes noise.
Any Mickey Mouse way you can hold 2 wires on the battery and touch them to the fuel pump plug in thingy on top of the tank will do. Switch them back and forth if the pump isn’t making noise/operating. You hopefully will hear the fuel pump making noise.
I hope that makes sense cuz my brain goes faster than my fingers.
Sometimes the fuel pump stops working for whatever reason and it needs a couple back and forths with 9volts.
Update-After reading Old & Slow and Chewy’s ideas, I change my internet analysis to TSS also. Woohoo!

That is exactly how a frozen, failed TSS or loose throttle cable acts.
Exactly what Chewey22 said. Had the same thing happen mine. Unplugged grey/beige plug and ran like a champ rest of the day.
yup. thats what it was. hope this helps someone out there
