Default Bike quit wont restart

couple of months ago the bike quit in mid-ride i had it towed home thinking that the plugs needed changed. i have seen then ben working on the bike had all te plastic removed for new bodywork and stuff installed the F4I gauge cluster. I put the new plugs in the bike but still will not run, can anyone suggest a testing method to narrow down the problem?

95 cbr 600 f3
i also bypassed the air solenoid to make the carbs feed from the ram at all times. i followed a how to from the forum i assume its correct.

Having made all those changes while you had an existing problem is going to make troubleshooting more difficult.

Start by providing a little more detail on how it died while riding. What was the sensation like ? Try to be specific.

it felt like te ignition just turned off to be honest thats what it felt like to me the air solidoind was never hooked up im assuming it was bad from te person i bought it from so i doubt thats causing it. The new guage cluster i folowed te how to in order to hook it up it powers on and appears to work like it should some things on it i cant check considering the bike wont start.

Ok, now what are the symptoms you're getting ? Will the engine turn over ? If it turns over, have you checked to see if you're getting a spark ?

ive been really busy lately i have clinicals and internship in the hospitals so i havent been able to do much in the way of testing the bike does turn over well and you can smell fuel if you crank for to long so i assume its getting fuel but havent checked the spark yet ill try to do that tonight.

ive checked and the bike and it does have fire to the plugs

here is what i know so far which isnt much.
All fuses that i can see are good
The F4I Gauge Cluster is hooked up correctly(read several how to's all seem to be the same)
Ive tracked down some wires that someone had just twisted together and properly connected and sealed them
The bike does get spark to #1 Plug(ill ceck all of them tonight)
The bike turns over well and the battery seems good
Replaced a old fuel line that was leaking so the bike is getting fuel

so this is were im at and the bike will not start......suggestions?

Look at this thread and verify your plug wires too.

sorry about the absent off posting here got caught up in other projects on the bike, after alot of testing turns out that the fuel pump was bad cutting fuel supply to a trickle. I just unhooked it and ran it straight gravity feed works fine now even at high rpm. just thought i would let you guys know i got it fixed thanks for the help.
