You are letting gas sit in the carb too long and it's clogting up the jets. You need to clean it or have it cleaned. When you are done riding it turn the gas off and run the gas out of the carb. You should really try to start it every couple of weeks to prevent it from happening.The carb is pretty easy to remove and clean. I've never worked on the TTR but most bike are the same. There is a clamp on the air box side and the cylinder side. The throttle cable goes through the top of the Carb, which should unscrew revealing the slide. Once you loosen the clamps and remove the slide you can remove the Carb. From looking at pics you probably have to remone the seat and gas tank to get enough room to work. Hope that helps some. I usually clean my carbs with brake cleaner and some new gas.
