Always start with the simplest and most obvious. A new plug won't hurt. If it still acts the same way after a new plug, the fuel delivery system sounds the most obvious.

ok,i got it working. it was the plug after all.i robbed one off of my honda hobbit.seems to have more power now too because the spark is stronger.would the problem i had with too much oil cause the plug to do this?just wondering. i straightened out the oil problem too.
