If its a carb could be jetting or dirty jets or mixture settings, Idle circuit to jetting circuit I would look at. Fuelling issues are throttle position only not rpm related just FYI.
Not really enough info given for what else it could be.

Try pulling the enricher out abit when the riding with a warm engine, does the spitting get better or worse? Sounds like it could be a little lean on the low jet or idle circuit, have you any mods, exhaust or air cleaner?
