Sounds alot like my 550 did when I first got the bike. The pilot jets were 
plugged. After I cracked the throttle, it would run at 3k for 20 seconds 
before dying. I think the 750's used an accelerator pump, which the 550's 
don't, so I may be off on your problem. First thing I'd try is spraying 
carb cleaner in the jets from the bottom with the bowl off.
