Default 400EX won't start

Alright here goes. I am selling my 400ex. I had a couple of guys come take a look at it the other day. I let them ride it up and down the street. No big deal. I had to step inside for about 2 or 3 minutes. come back out they decided that they are not interested. So I push it into the garage. Another guy wanted to look at it the next day. I tried to started it and it won't START!!! Is the anything those guys the night before could of done to it so it won't start? The Engine Turns over and the starter turns. I can smell gas after about 30 sec - 1 min trying to start.

By won't start do you mean that the starter won't turn over, or it turns over but the engine won't fire up???? If the starter won't turn, check the fuse.

This may sound stupid but I have done it myself, make sure the kill switch is turned back on on the handle bars. if the switch is off it will turn over but it will never start.
