Are all wires connected? Check the plugs are sparking, if they arent use one of the two good plugs that are and see if it sparks then.

Make sure the battery is fine

Make sure the h t leads are the right way round

Check the spark plugs make sure there not full off muck

Carbs might be up the swaney

At snetterton some thing happened to my carbs blocked from fuel :smt013 and all weekend we ran on 3 cyclinders as well

Check the fuel pump is pumping fuel

That should keep you busy try fuel pump first

it might be that you have connected ht leads incorrectly.

1 and 4 run from the coil that is usually sited on the left and 2 and 3 run from the other. doesn't matter which ht lead goes to which connection as long as they are both on the correct coil. nor does it matter which primary winding is connected to black or the red or the green as it is an isolating transformer, so don't worry about that either.
