Default intro and need help

Hi everyone,
My name is Chris, my boyfriend purchased a 1983 Yamaha Venture, when we got the bike it ran, cut off a few times but the bike had been kept away for over 2 years, My boyfriend changed the plugs because it was running rough, after that it would start but once it got hot it would shut off, we have had it to 2 different people and the bike is now worse off, we can't even start it. Does anyone know what the problem could be. Thank you for any help anyone can give.
