Maybe because of people that can't read, and just want to bicker, and not help him.
Maybe he has a life. Maybe it is April and cold and crappy in Chicago, and he will get to it when he gets to it. Hopefully he shares, for the next guy

If it is turning over, that would mean it is not the bank angle sensor, I suspect.
Fuel fuel filters can be changed, such as the ones on fuel injected bikes. When people refer to fuel filters, they typically referring to the filter that is a scheduled maintenace item, and not the screen on petcock. But again, why do you think the plugs are getting fuel when it will not start, his words, and it is not starving for gas at speed?
He already replaced the coil. I have had both coils and ignition modules fail
Why do you think if it is clogged screen to petcock, that it starts in 20 minutes?

Should we start calling you "Magneto"?
Gas may no stop completely?

This sounds like an electronic component that could be going bad and is malfunctioning when hot. The hard part about troubleshooting this is that you need to be checking the components when everything is hot so that you get a bad reading on the part that is bad. Like others have said check for spark first and then go from there. I'd start with the cheap/easy stuff like loose wires then coil then ICM is the order I'd go. If you have spark pull the fuel line off at the carburetor and see if gas comes out. If it doesn't then fuel is your problem and could be a bad petcock or something like that.
