Default Bike Won't Start

Well after I lowsided at the track I've been piecing it together... I've ran it a few times and it idled ok and everything.. I ran it 2 days ago with no choke lever and it ran ok but stumbled a little bit. After that I forgot to turn the bike off and left the key on for about a day n half.. I charged the battery tonight and I've got nothing.. It doesn't seem to be making any spark..

So basically it was running, I replaced the choke and killed/charged the battery and she won't start at all...

I checked all the connections, but nothing else has changed besides whats mentioned above..



WTF?

Is this a no-crank? Or a crank but no-start problem?

I'm assuming your choke adjustment is on the left bar...if so, and it's not cranking, check the clutch switch, maybe the connector came loose

The clutch switch is damaged but the connector still makes good contact.

It cranks, real fast, battery doesn't seem to be a prob..

How can you tell if a stator is bad?

Think I could have fucked the plugs?

Well, not fouled plugs, seems to be a fuel issue..

I sprayed some starter fluid and it started right up..

The tank did get dented, I took it off and there doesn't seem to be any blockage. I can't tell if the fuel filter is clogged, but there's def pressure in the line going into the carbs..

Any ideas?
