Hi Kegan,
Remember fuel, air and spark.
Are the plugs wet? check spark
Are the plugs sooty black? weak spark or to much fuel, check air.
With the plugs out and resting on the motor turn the bike over, there should be a big blue spark, if not then that could be your problem.
What are the condition of the plugs after trying to start the bike, wet, black, dry?
Cheers
Tim
