When was the last time it ran? Here's some random ideas:

Is battery connected
Kill switch on
Jiggle the key while trying to start
Side stand or tip over switch (wouldn't cause loss of lights though)
Blown fuse (I had an old model Honda, '81, that had the rectifier in the rear section and when it blew a fuse it did nothing. Freaky hard to diagnose

)
