Street Triple Cranks But Won't Start!

Hi all,

I am going though a starting problem. My Street Triple cranks like crazy but doesn't start. Not a hint of combustion at all. Changed and charged a new battery but no luck. It has been sitting for a few years with occasional running every few months but that's all. It started and ran about two months ago no problem. I drained the gas tank and refilled with new gas the other day. Could it be old gas in the system that is causing it not to start? Or a sensor that went bad just sitting in the garage?

Any advice well appreciated!

Thanks for the help!

That's the first thing I wanted to check but it seems to me to check for spark and fuel I have to remove the tank and airbox and quite a bit under that - correct?

Is there another way to check that doesn't require taking the bike apart?

How to I check the crank position sensor?

Is it possible to use an OBD meter and look for fault codes for any of this? Does a dealer start by just taking it all apart like I would or do they have shortcuts to diagnose these things?

I've worked on my car engines back in the 70's - 80's (for fun), but since then and the advent of computer ignitions and fuel injection I've not bothered. I'm confident doing it all but just want to see how much I really need to do before figuring out what's wrong.

Thanks for the advice! Sorry for all the requests but really need as much advice as I can get at this point.

OK, pulled off the top. It's getting fuel but no spark that I can see. CPS checks out fine at 200ohms. Anyone have any idea what to check next? I have an OBD reader but don't have an android device to use the software for it. Anyone have any alternatives they can think of?

Thanks for any help!
