    I need to get better at answering in one reply.
    I'm keeping this bike stock everything, except for the electrical system.
    The PO melted the harness and other electrical extremities.
    New harness, coils, leads, R/R, and now...ignition

      Problem solved!!!!
      It was the ignitor.
      I installed the dyna s ignition, removed the ignitor, dialed in the mixture screws, and put her through the ropes. Uphill, downhill, engine braking, high revving. Runs like a dream.
      Now to replace the clutch basket. Getting slippage when I shift up while getting on it.
      Thanks everybody for your input.
      Hopefully this helps somebody else.
