Alright finally got it all figured out!
Heres what happened-
- The engine was worked on by the previous owner. I am assuming that he bored it over.
-The jets that were in the bike were 134's and 136's so I bought a carb kit and put that in. It was 140's and 145's. I was a little skeptical about the 145's cause it was such a big difference and I was right. It ended up happening that the jet was too big because the same problem was happening. First time wasn't enough fuel, second time was too much fuel. So what I ended up doing was putting the 140's in the middle and 136's on the outside and then turned the pilot screw out 2.25 turns.
Anyway after all that work and mystery from what the other owner did, finally got the jetting right.
Thanks for all your help jackojeff

You did buddy.
NEW PROBLEM!!! Small, annoying issue, the bike takes a while to start. To start it, I have to give choke and throttle and then let the bike warm up with the choke fully open and then when I close the choke it dies, unless i start riding then I can ride and it will idle just fine. Maybe its an air/fuel ratio issue? Maybe something with the whole starting process. All plugs are sparking well so no idea what else it could be
