Sound like it could be starving for fuel. Does it smoke? Is the clutch slipping? How much lag does it have?
it has a full tank , the only thing i can think of that i did wrong was putt the clutch all the way in n maybe over reved it a bit , abit after that its when it started tripping i went back home n i turned it of for about n hour n got back on it n it rode normal , what chu think it could be ?

im thinking the clutch fluid is in need of changing?
reason im thinking this is if its original fluid its now 8yrs old and probably hydrated (absorbed a lot of moisture) so when the engine gets hot the fluid expands far quicker than it should and causes the clutch to slip.
so if the engine speed increases and the bike dont and your not holding the clutch id suspect the above issue.
im not totally sure with you discription of fault but if that sounds like what's happening get the fluid done (also check its not over filled in the fluid res as this causes same issue)
other possibility is clutch plates (unlikely at 4k)
old oil ? has it been serviced recently.?
car motor oil added by mistake this is not suitable for wet clutch engines and again will cause clutch slip.

The number 4 brake fluid. N. I had number 3 laying around. N I put. Some of that So it was half n half.

ok, so this looks like a pretty old post, and i hope the owner got it figured out.
dot 3 fluid will not be okay in a dot4 system. you can use 4 in a 3, but not the other way. on imported cars dot 4 spec is natural rubber friendly whereas dot 3 is not. system contamination with the dot 3 attacking all rubber seals.
