    Hey. You haven't written what basic checks you have done. So,


    • check that it have fuel


    • check that the fuel switch is on

    Does the battery work well? Are lights bright? If uncertain, connect cables from a car to the battery (if it is 12V battery) and try starting it again.

    If still nothing, buy a new spark plug and try starting. Those are cheap and it is good to have spare one anyway. You can also try to push start it with highest gear, by doing that you may get a better idea how the engine is responding.

    Edit: Oh and check you have choke enabled too, and if you kicked the bike a lot and it did not start, the engine is maybe "drowning" by then and you wont get it to start easily untill the spark plug dries. So it is okay to take a one hour break or so and try again.
