My 1982 rd350lc will run at idle but not under load. I can ride it to between 5000-6000rpm while the choke is on, but not without the choke. Bike will not idle with the choke on though. So basically without the choke, I can idle but not go, and with the choke I can go but not idle. I really need help please!!!

Bike sounds like it's running really weak, what has happened since it last ran ok??
Think you need to have a look at the plugs to see if they look the same, if so, it's a common fault to the carbs like the fuel tap filter being blocked. If it's on one side, could be a blocked main jet??

Have you checked for an air leak ? Ensure all joints are sound - head-to-barrel; barrel-to-crankcase;carb-to-barrel and also ensure the exhausts are correctly seated. It could be crankcase seals - check gearbox oil for fuel and also look to see if the exhausts are smoking heavily and are the plugs fouled with excessive oil.
