Not to sound stupid, but, is the kill switch in the off position? I did that 1 time and felt like a fool.. Lesson learned..

Little more detail
Does it crank over normally and not start or is it laboring to turn over and not starting? If it's the latter then you may need a new battery.

Depends....
If the motor is cranking normal when starting but will not start you need to try the TWO (throttle wide open). Twist the gas all the the way open and hold it there and crank the engine for 10 seconds or more. Then release the thottle so it snaps shut and start normal. You may have to try it a few times. If it ids not cranking then we need to look at other problems...

Go with T.W.O. & u report full tank of gas, did you just fill up ? It may have got some trash in line some where or air if you ran way low & the T.W.O. Will help push it thru or at least get some flo going. Fyi there will be some gas smell lingering after it cranks. It will not be there on your next crank unless you T.W.O. again.
You should be ok with just doing it once.

Terminology often is a problem.
I don't exactly understand "starts to go on but never actually rolls over".
Does that mean that the starter runs at normal speed but the engine never fires ?
Or does it mean that the starter tries to turn but never really goes ??
Either way some basic tests need to be made and if you don't feel comfortable with doing that yourself, call the shop.

It's flooded. Do a wide open throttle start. Twist the throttle to wide open and hold it there. This turns the fuel injectors off. Press the start button for 10 seconds and let it crank. Stop and let the starter cool for 1 minute. Do it again. Again another 1 minute cool. Then try a normal start.

This just happened to our 2011 Spyder. It turned out to be the battery.
Try boosting the battery when trying to start it. It worked for us. Than we had the battery replaced.
