Changed plugs on FZ600n and now won't start

Hi All,

I’m after changing the spark plugs on my FZ600n as lately it didn’t want to rev past 11k and seemed slightly sluggish. I have now changed all 4 plugs but cannot get it to start. It will turn over fine and I am getting a spark but the plugs felt bone dry when I took them out after turning it over a few times so I’m guessing I’m not getting fuel.

To change the plugs I removed the tank (I left all hoses and wires connected and just swung it around and left it sitting on the seat).

I then removed the sensor to the airbox along with the 4 hoses & loosed the rubber boots going to the throttle bodies and removed the airbox.

I then removed the two electrical connectors on top of the battery and unbolted the two terminals & removed the battery.

Next I removed the coilpacks.

I then had access to the plugs and swapped them out for new ones and put it all back together which is as far as I’ve got.. As I said it will turn over but will not start (Yes I have fuel in the tank).

I’m not sure on what to do next and I’m in a bit of a panic to get this bike back on the road as it’s my only way to get to and from work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated lads!!
