Only need spark and fuel to start
1. Spray carb or brake or starting fluid in carb and see if it try's to start if so then you have spark if not change spark plug check battery connections.

2. Verify fuel to the carb. When bikes sit a long time the petcock gets clogged on the tank. Disconnect the fuel line at the tank and make sure gas comes out. If not replace petcock but make you have gas in the tank! It will run on old gas but it will run crappy do be sure to drain the old gas.

Spray starting fluid in the carb and see it it briefly starts. If it does then you have spark meaning it isn't an electrical issue...... it means you need a new carb or it isn't clean. How long ago did you replace the carb?
Also Triple check these:
Plenty of gas in tank
Kill switch is in "run" position
Bike is in neutral
Choke is on

Most times it's that simple.....WE NEED YOU TO TAKE THESE STEPS FIRST TO HELP YOU DETERMINE YOUR PROBLEM.

You can use stater fluid, brake or carb cleaner to spray in the carb and see if it starts up for about a second........ or you can continue to ignore what everyone here is telling you lol
