Question Starting Problem

My bike had some old gas in it. I poured some new gas in it and it started but it wouldn't idle by it's self had to keep playing with the throttle to keep it running. Then it died and hasn't started since. I drained the gas tank and each of the carb bowls. And tried it again and it hit once. Tried starting for two days and nothing won't even hit now. Went to check the spark plugs and could not get the plugs off do you have take the engine off to change the spark pluggs?

Nope... If you still have your tool kit use the spark plug socket to get em out. The frame brace (bar above where the plugs are) is quite annoying, but you can slip the coils, tools, and plugs out behind them. The coils should unplug and pull right off, then get the socket down there and loosen them up, I used a magnet to get the plugs out.
