I can't see the Google Drive photos either.

There are plenty of things that can cause what you are experiencing, most are pretty simple to correct.

Is the battery fully charged? Check the voltage before starting - should be 12.7V. Check it cranking - should be over 10V. Check it at idle - should be 13V or more. F.I. bikes do odd things if the voltage is low.

How old is the fuel? If there's any question, drain and refill before taking things apart. Add a strong fuel system cleaner like Techron Concentrate once per season to clear deposits from the injectors, intake valves, and combustion chamber.

Did you oil the new air filter - too much? Put the original one back in and see how it runs.
