Sounds more like a fuel delivery problem. Very likely something very simple but it doesnt sound like plugs at all to me.Take your plugs out first & give them a clean with a wire brush,check all the hose's,leads ect & make sure they're all connected,then give it another try.

how long was the bike standing? It could be that one or more carb jets have got clogged up and you may have to strip and clean out the jets. My mates ZZR was doing that until we cleaned Her jets out.

Had same problem with the Triumph Trophy 900...did what Ghosty did and all the other fuel problems only to find that everytime the tank was put back, it kinked the fuel line...took weeks to get it right literally to a hair of a whisker!
