05 Banshee wont start

I bought an 05 Banshee that was flushed and parked for a couple of years. The guy kept it up to date and recently fueled it up and started it right up. I had it running just yesterday. Today I tried kickstarting it and nothing. The banshee is all stock nothing replaced since 2005. Im new to all this, where should I start?

Always check for a spark at the plug first. If that is OK, clean the carb out.

Agreed with above.

The obvious is check and replace your spark plug.

If that don't help, clean out you carburetor (and if you don't know, look at youtube, thats how I learned how!).
