Most certainly if the gas has been in the tank for quite a while. It is winter right?? How long was the bike parked and when was it last ridden by the previous owner?
I would suggest installing an inline gas filter and adding a fuel additive to help get rid of any deposits from our modern gas that has such a short shelf life. The filter will catch stuff from the tank before it gets to the carb. Anything in the carb will hopefully dissolve and go away. Worst case scenario is removing and cleaning the carb properly. We have a bunch of members with lots of carb experience and will set you right. I am not one of them with hands on experience. Lynda's GZ always ran like a champion no matter how long it was parked.
