Default Yamaha SR250 Throttle Problem...

I recently got my bike started again after sitting for over 5 months. I cleaned the Carb, and finally got it working, but....it starts with the choke on, and idles nicely, but when I turn the throttle the bike shuts off. I'm new to bike maintenance, so if anyone might have any ideas of what this might be please let me know. I think that when cleaning the carb, I didn't clean the jets thoroughly enough. Thanks in advance.
