Well come to find out it was a combination of carbs and plug wires.I cleaned the carbs for THE FOURTH TIME and put new wires on it and that did it.
Went out tonight for a little spin and froze my nads off,but it was worth it.

It's usually something simple. Glad you found the problem. Yeah I know about cold weather riding too. It was 85 here today. I couldn't take much of it.
