sounds like a jetting issue to me. under a load your bike will be sucking more fuel so its probably rich. hopefully im not wrong so these guys dont eat me alive :D

had a plug "go bad" even tho it was a nice tan color... that would be easy to check
kill switch too

My vote goes for a pinched/clogged fuel line, would take till the float bowl sucked dry to notice so it might not show up in the shop??

Do you have a stock gas cap or aftermarket vent?
I've seen issues with the aftermarket vents not vent, float bowl will run low under load, then when you check its all good, it's a bitch the first time, then it's something to look for.
