Before you go route of replacing injectors, I would remove gas tank, remove fuel injection fuse. Remove rear cylinder spark plug and pay attention is it wet. If it is wet, that will indicate that you have a lot of fuel in the cylinder and you fouled both plugs. With fuse mentioned above still removed crank engine couple times with plug still removed to eliminate all the excess fuel. Clean the plug or even better instal new one and use starting fluid by spraying it directly into airbox in attempt to start the engine.(PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL DUE TO THE FLAMMABILITY OF THE STARTING FLUID, SPRAY ONLY IN LITTLE BURSTS AFTER INITIAL START) If your engine starts you know your issue is fuel system, after that I would put everything back together and try to start the bike with fuel from the tank.
