Default Motorbike workshops SOR

I have a Kawasaki ZX2RC 250cc which has done 30,000km's.
After not using it for several months it will kick over but not start!
(And yes it has fuel in it)
Can anyone recommend a workshop SOR to take it too.

Tried looking and searching on PSB!

Thanks.

Don't know any workshops sorry as i haven't had a bike for years but you could try looking at one of the spark plugs to see if there is a spark (plug attached to lead) as you kick it over? Fuel does go off after a while but should be ok after only a few months I would think, so I would be more inclined to think it's electrical. If there is spark try adding choke for a few kicks, then turn off choke for a few kicks etc. If no spark check battery and maybe try new plugs?

Its electric start no need to kick it over, when push starting 1/10 times it started then cut out after a few seconds.
Fuel is 98 too so should be alright, thinking electrical too, also added choke for a few starts this helped getting it going for a few seconds when it was cutting out, thinking it maybe a blocked fuel line...

push start??

where SOR are u? i need more riding buddies

if not used for few months check fuel filter (disconnect fuel line see if the pump is pumping fuel on the start) sparks would be more probable cause though...easy to check
