Have you tried a new spark plug? You stated that the spark plug isn't "Getting Fire". Please run this test again with a spark plug that you know is working. after you verify the plug isn't receiving power. You will need a test light to run a coil test. This coil has to blade style connectors. One should have 12 volts (ign, key in run position). the other blade will be negative and should cause the test light to pulse or flash with the engine cranking over. Please write back with your results and let me know if it was the coil or that you need more information.

nasty carb, blocked fuel line, not enough spark.

Unfortunately electrical issues can not be solved over the internet. There are just too many variables to cover. I suggest you start at the power source and work your way towards the ignition. Once you find where the power stops, you will find the issue.

First thing I would look at is the fuel tank cap. There is - or should be a tank breather tube. The cap and the tube can - and do - get clogged up with dirt. Clean this thoroughly with a solvent and poke something small into the hole(s) to ensure they are clear. Also, check out the air filter - is one present ? If there is, is it clean ? Next, go for the spark plugs - these 400cc 4-strokes rev hard and high - more like 2-strokes - so the plugs take a real hammering. Invest in some iridium ones - well worth the expense.

Not really enough information to help. What kind of motorcycle, what engine? Is it a 4-cylinder or 6 cylinder? Does it have a carburetor for each cylinder? You have spark on one and two, but it won't run? Could have no spark, or you could have carburetors not giving you fuel.

Was it running when it went under? If it was may need major work if engine swallowed water while running. Was it salt water or fresh. If it was not running when it went in you can drain all fluids and flush. Carbs or throttle bodies need to be removed and cleaned spark plugs pulled and checked for water. Once all cylinders are are free of water fog them and reasemble. Add new fluids and gas and try starting. If it is still drippin g water you will need for bike to completely dry. Hair dryer on low will help dry electronic controls. Do not over heat.
