 Is there any blow back at filter(popping, backfiring, coughing, spitting fuel back etc?)?. If There is you need to check valve clearances to make sure they are correct. You then need to clean the carburetor. The second thing to check is the ignition system.
I have run upon the following that causes the plugs to fowl out.
1. Bad fuel system or carburetor. Example had a Honda fowling plugs, coughing with reduced power and otherwise ran ok. I replaced the carb and it still did same thing and worse. So I took old carb apart cleaned it and adjusted it by the manual. I put it back on and machine ran good. So do not think because you buy a new carb it will always be a good one, especially these after market carbs.
2. Valves. I had one machine that backfired when you let off the accelerator, fowled out the plugs etc. The valves were to tight causing this.
3. Ignition system. Coils, CDI modules and ignition stators can be bad causing the plug not to fire hot enough. This will cause plug fowling. Had a running machine with a CDI module that was bad causing it to run a while then it would get hard to start. I removed plug and it was partially fowled out(it was still firing but not 100% so it was hard starting. I also had a machine that had a resistive ground that caused the ignition not to fire hot enough.
4. Engine cylinder compression. If the cylinder compression is low it will also cause plug fowling.

There is many many thing that can cause plug fowling.
Hope this info helps you find your problem. 
There is in the service manuals a troubleshooting guide that will help you locate the probable cause. I suggest you get a service manual and read it. Even though I am familiar with ATVs I always get a service manual when the problem is more then just a bad switch or lose wire.

      My friends KQ 300 starts fine and runs, as soon as you put it in gear and try to accelerate its bucks and farts like crazy, not moving... I cleaned carb and it worked good for 1 day... now back to same problem.... could it be such as a bent valve????

      Howdy y'all, I'm trying to fix a neighbors 2015 Brute Force 300. Came in with hard to start and won't idle except on choke issue. I pulled the carb and found the pilot jet as well as the emulsion tube partially clogged. Cleaned up everything, put it back together, still having issues...  It will start right up on choke and will also start off choke if you give it just a touch of throttle but it absolutely will not idle unless it's choked just a touch. Also, excuse my ignorance but I'm assuming the "dial" thingy attached to the carb that turns in and out is for setting idle??

      Have a 1998 AC 300 2x4, Just installed a new carburetor. Engine starts easy but the choke RPMs are very hi and take along time (5-10 mins when cold out). After engine has warmed up choke releases and it idles and runs fine., It does no have an electric choke. The choke lever is never used and it seems like an auto choke? Long story short, how can I lower the choke rpm levels?
       
      Also, carb came with a spare145 jet, not 100% sure what is installed. Could this impact choke RPMs?
       
       
      Any help and information greatly appreciated.
