The fuel pump was taking gas in and spitting it back out so it doesnt look like thats the cause of this. I tried starting the bike by adding gas straight to the carbs with a fresh battery and got nothing. It sounded like it started to fire, but still wont fully start. I also noticed for the first time that the tach randomly jumped to about 7k and then came back down. Im not sure if theres a short some where or what caused it, or if its related to my problem.

Ive checked the fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs, fuses, battery and connections, and Im running out of ideas as to what the problem is. Any suggestions or advice or am I stuck taking it to a dealership?
