F4i Won't start?

I tipped the bike over and it was still started for like a min. I picked it up and it stalled right when I got it up. I couldnt start it after. The starter doesnt work so I tried jump start and wouldn't work. I opened up the air filter box and it was full of oil. The spark plugs were full of oil too. The bike is really hard for compression cause usually in second gear it jump starts right away now in 3rd the tire slides most of the time and got it turning a few times but ran out of energy.

Anyone know what I could try?

hydrolocked........take the spark plugs out and turn the motor over (after the plugs are out it will turn) till here is no more oil shooting out...replace or clean the plugs and start it.....if not not knocking you should be cool. if it is knocking....buy another motor....cause you have a bent rod.

Cool for some reason I did that took the spark plug out and cranked it oil was flying everwhere and I was just happy that the wheel was turning so I just put everything back together and it wouldnt start. I think I should do it again till there is no oil coming out.

Should I pull the throtle too cause there was some oil insine those 4 holes coming out too?

yeah pull the throttle bodies off and clean them up...oil in the cylinder is a bad thing!

Thanks for your help man, I took the plugs off again and drained all the oil out by turning the wheel in 6th gear, then the starter show some sign of life for a bit then wouldn't work anymore, im thinking there may be some oil left and ill change the plugs that should do I hope.
