a few things.
Are you pulling the clutch?
is it in neutral?
flip the kill switch on the handles back and forth a few times.
check your fuses
I had this problem on my sport bike kinda of a last thing, so you have a sensor on your kick stand. my sport bike wouldn't start if the kick stand was up.

battery at rest - 12.9 volts
battery while starting - volt drop no lower than 12.2 volts
battery w/high idle - 14.2 volts
a battery at rest that measures 12.7 volts is 25% discharged!
a high voltage drop at start would indicate a weak battery
a low charge rate at high idle would indicate a weak charging system
Make sure all your connections are clean and tight. Beyond battery you would make sure you have juice down to the starter (test light) and then be working on the starting system.
