Welcome to the forum.
As Paul mentioned- listen fro the buzz of the fuel pump running.
Verify it has gas in it- enough to start.
A fully charged battery will help.
A flick of the handle bar mounted off switch never hurts.
A check of the smell/odor for a foul-stale smell of the gas will give you an idea.
if you add gas- perhaps some Techron to get you started off.
HTH, Gary

NO, just kidding. Somebody mention AIR! This too needs checking. Them little critters, as in MICE can ruin your day in the air intake, nesting there! I live in mouse country, find'em everywhere. Rancher here, with barn and hay and large critters, chickens and mice love all the above. Bikes too are not beyond their likes. A stored bike, perfect mouse home. Take the air box apart, intake especially(1200GS) has a perfect mouse hole. Even bad gas makes some noise, but good checking it. Randy
