I have a FI section in my Clymer. It looks like they are all interconnected. There is a engine temp sensor, Air temp sensor and a Throttle position switch. I'd try to disconnect the relay, fuel pump and flow meter and see if you have spark.

The fuel injection system and ignition system are two separate independent systems . You can simply remove all the FI stuff, plug the injector holes in the head and replace with carbs. In fact back in the day that is what Kawasaki did when they started getting their bikes returned for warranty work on the fuel injection. They replaced the fuel injection with mikuni BS34 carbs.

I have some brand new holders that should work. Guess I better check that too!!. My petcock is just a touch too close to carbs, that has me worried.
