He said it won't fire with starter fluid spray. Popping that on an old bike can end up causing more problems with a leak maybe .
Since it got that one spark and then quit, may be corrosion on connection of crank sensor next to oil filter.
Need to check for any codes on a FI bike.
HB, were the plugs wet when you took them out? Be sure to add that signature like. On yours, it will end in I. We would have had a better idea on problems knowing it's fuel injected.

That's the first diagnosis call out for a cranking and no start and it's pretty obvious it's spark now.
Need to determine why no signal to spark.
