Check the Throttle cable runs ok, and give it a very good dose or WD40, plus check the throttle peddle, and give it a dose of WD40 where it needs it. I find my cables need a fettle every so often - you might even want to replace it (easy) with a new one, and keep the old as an emergency spare. Same goes for clutch cable. Carbs may need a fettle as they do go out of tune over time, and it only takes a few minutes by someone experienced.... I would be supprised if it were the head gasket, but this should be easy to check. If it is replace it with a decent one, as there is a large varience in price and quality.
