Question Bike wont start!!!need some help

I have an 07 r6s that has been stopped since November, i stipped the plastics,gas tank to get a new paintjob. while in the shop i replaced the air filter and new sparkplugs, i got 1.5 Gal of fuel this weekend but now it wont start.
it had been working fine battery is charged...
i checked to make sure nothing was unplugged and everything seems fine.
Any suggestion how i can trouble shoot my problem before taking it to a shop!
the bike turns over but wont start
any help will be appreciated!!!

It sounds dumb but did the kill switch get flipped? Just a thought.

kickstand switch so that you cant take off with the kickstand down should be right around the stand.

Spray some carb cleaner in the spark plug holes and see if it tries to kick off. If it does, then it is a fuel problem. If not.....electrical.
