Bike problem with plugs anyone know anything about this?

hey i am having a problem with what i think is my plugs fouling out. i took it to a shop and had tires/oil changed and they ran my battery dead so when i tried to start it we had to recharge then start. we couldn't get it started and the dude told me my plugs were fouled so i went home and changed them because i hadn't in prolly 10k miles. So now i put in the new plugs and it starts up and runs fine. The next day i try and start it up and it does but it dies after a little bit and i start it up again and it died and my exahaust noise started to sound funny then i started it 1 more time and the exhaust sounded really odd and then i couldn't get it started since then. so i took out my brand new plugs and cleaned them and put them back in and it almost seemed like it was going to start and now its not starting at all again. anyone know what would be causing my plugs to foul? its in the garage and i put a heater in the garage because i was worried the cold was doing it. anyone able to help me?

if the plugs looked bad your probably leaking oil into the cylinders, most likely valve guides. if plugs look good it might be compression or fuel related, or even ignition but your gonna need tools to test

When you ran it did you ride it, and if you rode it did it pull normally?

no i didn't ride it i got it started. i pulled out all 4 of my new plugs today and switched out 2 of them and rode it for 2 hours today and it ran great. it was just fouling out because it was so damn cold i think. i didn't have a single problem with it today and it was like 60 degrees so that means no more snow riding for me i'm glad my **** is working though i thought it was gonna *** up right before stuntwars. i got the 2 new plugs and cleaned 2 of the other 1 time used plugs and i put them on and started it up and everything ran and it idled for like 3 mins then it died and icouldn't get it started again i was so pissed. i thought it was ****ed for sure then i remember hey i took the tank off and forgot to put the gas back on from the on position turned it on and it ran great and i had a hell of a good stunting practice today

yeah usually, people always think about their plugs when their **** dont start, but usually it has something to do with your gas
