take a look at your kickstand and clutch switches. also make sure your kill switch is off!

Being that it is a 94 I would start with the Cdi box. If it is not that, then you know it is working when trouble shooting. That box will be going soon anyway!

Thanks I Am Going To Check Thoes Switches Now

Yeah, just take both wires going to the clutch switch and ground them both- all "crank" and "run" safeties bypassed.

check the kill switch I found on my 2004 that if it was slightly pushed in the off position barely unseated it would not start

Get your meter out and start checking the switches!
