Man this is a tough one. In these situations it seems that you have done all the things I would have done. The spark is weak on the stock cdi's, but if you are seeing spark at the plug I think we can eliminate electrical. So now were at fuel, air, and compression. New bike so the filter is not clogged. We got air. Even if the head was warped I think it would start and run just poorly. So were stuck at fuel or air fuel mixture. My next move would be to check the needle to make sure I put the pac man clip back in properly holding the needle down in the barrel. Hit the tickler on the carb a few times watching for fuel movement in the line, and try to start it. If none of this worked I would take a look at the crank seals behind the small crank gear and magnet on the other side to see if they are popped out. Usually if there is a leak here there are some signs of fuel in the covers. It's stumping me so it must really be driving you nuts.
