Could be all number of things, but doubt it would be the main jet being the wrong size, unless MASSIVELY wrong.
If it pulls away with choke and not without then it's almost deffo too much air or not enough fuel
What's the setup ?. carb (10W, 12A or 11Y), standard airbox, reeds etc.
Could be a massive air leak, incorrect float height (height would be too big, hence shutting the needle valve too early)
If you take the carb off keeping it upright and remove the float bowl, does it have a decent amount of fuel in there ?.
Have you removed and checked the emulsion tube (the brass tube the main jet screws into) ?. They often get forgotten and they have lots of little holes that imulsify the fuel with air as it passes through.
I'd also check the reeds as well.

Sounds like a blocked emulsion tube.

Your symptoms sound more like pilot jet to me, but as mentioned the emulsion tube could also be blocked as it too has several very small holes.
ideally I would remove every jet in the carb and get it all ultrasonically cleaned.
once done start with stock jet sizes with the correct float height and work from there.
