Try fuel from m a different station, different brand.
Check for vacuum leaks.

Fuel pump or filter?  Just guessing.

I'll throw this out there FWIW.  My '02 acts like throttle position sensors should be a scheduled maintenance item.  I have a little over 85K miles on the bike and I'm on my third TPS; I now keep a new one in the bags.  It will act like you describe when the TPS starts going south.

Try a higher fuel grade for a tank full and see what happens, worked for me.
