Default It aint runnin

What could my problem be?

I have bought new spark plugs, but they dont fire in or out of my head. I figure that it is the coil or some wires not connected.If thats not it what could it be and what should i do about it.Please help, I am supposed to go riding Friday, but i have to get it running.It turns over, but it just doesent fire.Any help would be appreciated.

Yea the neutral light and only one of the front lights work.Is the CDI the same thing as the rev box?If it is, it has a White Bros rev box.Would I have to replace it or do what to it?
