Are you sure you have spark? Remove the spark plug and hold it against the engine frame so that the threads on the spark plug are grounded. Connect the high tension lead and crank the engine. You should see a fat blue spark at the spark plug gap.

If you do not have spark then check all the kill switches (tether cord and left handlebar). On some models the one on the left handlebar has to be in the center position <u>and clicked in </u>before it will start.
