This particular problem is on a 21 YZ250f dirt bike but it could happen on any machine. 
 

Getting a surge or hiccup at about 60-70% throttle then clears up. Low end is fine. I knew the plug was not the problem but changed it anyway and no different. 
I’m thinking(hoping) fuel pump but looking for advice where to start. 

 
I believe you can change mapping with an app, you try fattening up mid range?

When we first got the bike I read up on all the mapping you can do but decided to leave it at factory settings. It did cross my mind that could be an issue but I don’t think the bike would change mapping on its own. 
I do use the app to track hours for service. 
Looked at the app when this happened and everything looks normal, no fault codes. 

 
Bike is used almost every weekend so I don’t think bad gas is the problem. 
 
I was thinking junk built up in the injection system. There still might be something in there stopping correct fueling. Is this a symptom that just popped up or something that has always happened with the bike?

New issue. Bike has been flawless since day one. 

 
As well as fuel pump, Id check the TPS (though that usually surges at idle), valves and timing.
