turns over has spark, but no start!!

i have a 2006 tld predator- I went to start it, it made a loud backfire then wouldn't start. it turns over but wont fire up

is this CDI, bad wiring, valves, spark plug, compression? ??

i have never ran into an electrical problem, and am still coming along with bike and quad mechanics.

You have to find out when your spark plug is firing if it is firing when its top dead center magneto key should be fine but if not firing top dead center you have problem.

Will it start if you open the throttle a small amount, then if you let off it dies? If so then it's likely the throttle safety switch inside the throttle thumb housing, pry that open and adjust so that the contacts are not touching and it should stay running.
