No spark at the plugs ? or no power to the coils ?

Do all your basic checks again & check all the electrical connections for dry jointing...

If memory serves the 11's had a very basic "Vehicle Down Sensor" in the form of a mercury switch that would cut power to the ignition if the bike exceeded a certain lean angle...

Could well be worth a look once you've ascertained all is well everywhere else...

Cheers

If you've got power to your coils then you should have power to your plugs, unless both coils have failed, or lost an earth, or broken leads.
Check the earth connections from the coils to the frame.
Have you taken the plugs out, left them connected but earthed on the motor and cranked it over to see if they're sparking?
