Explosion sounds from my engine! Please help.
So I have a 94 f2. I put it up for winter and left it dry. This last few weeks I've been getting things ready for spring. When I go to start my bike, the loudest pops or bangs started happening. I thought maybe the gas was bad, it's only a few months old. So I get some fresh gas. Drain the carbs. And put it back together. Same thing, it just cranks over and over, and then gunshots shooting out the tailpipe. Please help. I'm seriously fearing the worst.
Here is what I have done so far: I checked the coils, they are good. I checked the plugs, they were wet. I checked the pulse generator thingy, and that was good too. Plenty of spark from the coils. All plugs fire. I tried removing the air cleaner to get more air. No luck. I checked connections and resistances. Everything good there. Good batt. Good gas. Good spark. I'm just stumped.

How old are your spark plugs? I once had a similar issue with my old F2, when I put it away it ran good, when I started it mid winter it struggled, when I tried starting it at spring, got nothing. New plugs, first touch of the start button and it fired right up.
You said drained the carbs, did you open them and had a look at the jets or just drained the bowls through the drain screws?
