Default Flat spot suzuki GS250

Hi
im not expecting anything amazing power wise from it but i was wondering wether this is tuning related or just lack of power

basically its really flat acceleration wise until high rpm
it redlines at 11,500 and it doesnt pick up much until 7-8k rpm is this tuning related??

also it hesitates even under no load accelerating from idle the first 2k
could this be due to float height?

also do i need to balance the carbs??

sorry if any qusetions are stupid
