Wont start? Does it turn over? How do you know you have no spark? Do you have gas?
This may help try to solve your issue.

After you check the KILL switch .... try jumping it with a car/trk battery .... I would do this WITHOUT the vehicle running .... then you need to check the State of Battery voltage .... good luck .... Mike

A little more info would certainly be helpful. Does the motor spin but not start??? What happens when you press the starter switch??? In gear- foot on brake??? Anything on the dash? Could be a DESS failure????
Good Luck.

Good Luck.
it cranks when you turn the key on you can hear fuel pump no DESS failure and no codes i pulled hose off air box shot some fuel in it and nothing so i would say no spark

You still may have not got any fuel into the intake at the hose area. Maybe closer to the air filter but would have to remove the air filter first , you may get better fuel to squirt into the throttle body.
Or try starting fluid.

What have you done to the bike leading up to the moment that it didn't start?? Did you wash it? Was you under her skirt playing around with some wires, or digging around to install a farkel? Did it sit in the rain with out a cover on it? There's a lot of things that could cause this and we have to have the answers to this to pin point the issue!

I don’t think you’ve confirmed no spark yet. Have you pulled a plug and held it to ground while cranking?

Been build new home in TN have had no time just kept in on battery tender and started it up every month had to replace battery that’s about it and new fuel is was sputtering but now nothing

Sounds like it could be flooded.
Twist the the throttle to full open and hold it there. That will turn off the fuel injectors. Crank the engine for 10 seconds max. Allow the starter to cool for a bit. Then do it again. After that try a normal start.

Now did you drain the tank or just put new gas over the bad??
-

I would start by draining as much gas out as you can, and start out fresh! Then put some good gas in and put a good shot of seafoam in with it! Then try to start again, it's going to take a bit to get that bad gas out of the lines. And you have to take care you don't run the battery down to far!

If it's sputtering you got spark it's just got crap in the fuel system!! I am a firm believer in seafoam, it works, some people here on this site don't, but it has worked for me!! Good luck, you'll get it!!

Engine Cranking Conditions SM6 Model The following conditions must be met to allow engine cranking: – Ignition switch ON – Emergency engine stop switch to RUN – Mode button pressed in once (safety message acknowledgement) – Transmission in neutral (or in gear with clutch lever depressed) – Brake pedal depressed – D.E.S.S. recognizes the key – Start button pressed in. SE6 Model The following conditions must be met to allow engine cranking: – Ignition switch ON – Emergency engine stop switch to RUN – Mode button pressed in once (safety message acknowledgement) – Transmission in neutral – Brake pedal depressed – D.E.S.S. recognizes the key – Start button pressed in. NOTE: If the transmission was not in neutral when the engine was shut off, the HCM (hydraulic control module) will automatically shift the transmission to neutral at the next engine start to allow engine starting (if there is sufficient oil pressure). The parking brake state will not affect engine cranking. TROUBLESHOOTING TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS It is good practice to check for fault codes using B.U.D.S.as a first troubleshooting step. Refer to COMMUNICATION TOOLS AND B.U.D.S. subsection. Refer to POWER DISTRIBUTION AND GROUNDS for fuses and relays information. Always refer to the WIRING DIAGRAMwhen troubleshooting an electrical circuit. Install a battery charger on jump start posts in front storage compartment for any tests that involve a prolonged "key ON" period. If battery voltage gets too low, test results can be altered. NOTICE Never force a multimeter probe into an electrical terminal. STARTING SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTING If the gauge or lights do not come on when ignition switch is ON, refer to TROUBLESHOOTING in IGNITION SYSTEMsubsection. If gauge and lights come ON with the ignition switch ON and starter does not engage, start your testing sequence by carrying out STARTER OPERATION TESTin this subsection.
