I do, the Nomad is a friend of mine. We travel together sure glad this didn't happen on a trip.

The final outcome.
He put new spark plugs in the bike before I came over to trouble shoot it.
He took bike to dealer. He didn't tell me when he went to autozone for plugs they did not have NGK plugs and cross reverenced them over to Autolite plugs.
Dealer removed the Autolite plugs and installed NGKs and now the bike runs fine.

I would have never guessed that Autolite plugs could cause that.
