i am not sure, i got it out of the paper for a real good deal. After sitting for an hour it starts right away and idles fine. It is just after heating up it will not start.

Before any major damage is done, you should put a new topend in it. Check wiseco.com

kinda sounds like a stator problem or a coil breaking down when its hot,when it doesnt start pull the plug and check for fire.
