Default No spark

Just getting my bike back togather and unable to get it started. I played around for a while and found that im not getting any spark on any cylinders. Ive tryied to look around at my wireing and found nothing unpluged or anything else wrong. Was wondering if i could get some direction as to where to look next.
Thanks
Chris

Alright, I'll give it a shot. First, what did you take the bike apart to do? Have you checked the fuses? Are the plugs in decent condition? Does the engine still crank over with the starter when you try and start it?

I took the bike apart after an accident to have the frame polished. All the fuses are good and the plugs are good pretty much brand new. The engine is cranking when im trying to start it. It just doesnt want to fire.

so how do you know you're not getting spark to the plug? crank and watch for spark while the plugs were out? or are you assuming that you have no spark cause the engine won't turn over?

do you hear the fuel pump prime when the key is turned to on and ignition to on as well? did you install your bank angle sensor upside down (like i did once a long long time ago) after taking the bike apart?

Yeah i pulled each plug out one at a time and looked to see for spark. The fuel pump does prime when i turn the key on. When i tore it down i left the front end togather in one piece so nothing changed there.
Thanks for the help.

i guess work your way from plugs back...check the coils with a multimeter to make sure they are ok...then back...all the way to the brain.
