Turns over but no spark was created by Scorpio2016
The bike was running great but started backfiring at high speed on the highway. It ran rough for a while and later it quit when I parked it and would not start. There is no spark at the plug and new coils were just put on last year. How do I test the coils and cdi to see what is fried here?

If there is no spark at more than one coil the problem is likely before that. Bad connection, bad CDI etc.
