No need to check ignition-timing, it's fixed and computerised. Could check coils and spark:

1. measure resistance across coils' primary terminals. What is this number?
2. pull spark-plug wire, insert spare plug, ground-case of plug. Push START, do you see spark jumping gap at plug?

If so, entire ignition system between pick-up coils at crank to spark-plugs are fine. What's preventing bike from running is insufficiently cleaned carbs. They worked perfectly fine when bike left showroom floor. You need to clean carbs back to factory-fresh condition.

I. In addition to clearing out jets, did you clear out each bleed hole in pilot-jet and emulsion tube? Each tiny hole needs to be cleaned with matching size guitar wire. I also like to drip coloured-dye through centre of these and verify that every hole "bleeds" correctly.



II. You'll also need to clear fuel-passages in carb-body that delivers petrol to jets. It's similar to nozzle at end of garden-hose. You've been cleaning nozzle, but there's still clogs in hose. Need to clean hose as well.

Carb Choke Circuit
Most important to clean are choke and pilot circuits to get bike started. But all other passages should be cleared with mechanical scrubbing as well.

III. Float-valves must seal and stop petrol flow for correct fuel-level in float bowl. If you've got petrol leaking out your vent/overflow tube, float-valves are not sealing. They must be replaced and their seats must be inspected for proper sealing.
