There is no ThermAC system on an '87 duke. There is an Intake Air Temperature sensor instead.
Check for trouble codes.
A failing Intake Air Temperature and/or Coolant Temperature Sensor could both affect engine performance, as it's possible the engine is running too lean when cold.
A failing fuel pump can also lead to a lean condition, as can a leaking "rubber" hose in the gas tank. Testing the fuel pressure would be a good idea.
Although this was for my '84 duke, much of it still applies to an '87... Tried three different MAP sensors, but 2.5 engine still bogs badly when accelerated
