Having virtually no info to go on, I would say it's your battery.
Year and model, miles, mods, etc. would be helpful. Along with a little more description.

Mine just did the same thing. Loose battery cable. Easy fix.

You will need to gives up a little more info to get anything other than a battery answer...
Is it an older bike, what year ? It may have a switch in the clutch area that keeps it from starting unless the clutch is engaged. That switch may be bad and have you tried to start it in neutral ? Did you do any kind of changes to the bike just before this started happening ? Have you checked the main ground from the battery ? Have you put a multimeter on the battery and what does it read ? What does it read when you hit the starter button ? Etc, etc,etc.
