Would it have a bad plug wire or bad coil ?
If the cable is bad, you here the hissing sound, If bad coil, the cylinder would be dead.
It could be that you have to sync the carbs (if you change the pipes to a custom ones or installing a sport air filter, you have to sync the carbs, sometimes you have to change the carb jets also- slow and main)

I would check to see if you have spark before you try to disassemble your bike. Fouled plugs are usually contaminants in the fuel system or your heads are having problems. If you do not have a fuel filter in the bike then try putting one in as this is a cheep fix and gas should be filtered any way. Check the timing to make sure it has the proper amount of advance. Run the bike for a while and if the problem persists. Side gapping the plugs to a larger gap will also help prevent fouling. This is a trick many race car mechanics use. If none of these work, then the heads need to be refurbished.

there should be a front coil also on this bike most likely located under the gas tank.
