Holy lack of punctuation... that was hard to read.

First guess is that when you put the tank back down you pinched one of the breather hoses. Check there first.

LOL

My guess would be that the bike is rejecting the LED's.   ;D

Seriously though, I would check the condition of the plugs and run some fresh fuel through it next.

Good luck

Punctuation is your friend.  It is the gateway to sentence structure.
