Cranks but won't start

Thanks for the add to the forum guys! I just bought an 02' CBR 954rr. Got it home put a new battery in it and actually rode it for awhile but started popping through the exhaust. Now fuel pump primes but will not start. The guy I bought it from said it had sat for awhile.......is it possible bad gas fouled the plugs enough that it won't even try to fire orrrrr........any suggestions please!!!!!

Update: the FPR does weep from the vacuum port! However it is very slow! Decided might as well dump the tank and change the plugs while I wait on new FPR! Just put it all back together and bam......she started right up and sounds great! Thanks for the help!
