yes i mean i can put my whole hgand on the front but cant even put a finger on the rear.i checked for spark and put new wires on since then.


Answer
There are several reasons for this problem. One is a bad coil. Do a coil test. If you need to know how let me know. Not hot enough spark. You might have a lower compression on the front cylinder than the rear. Do a compression test.
You might have a bad spark plug.
Good luck and happy riding
