My GSXR400 is not starting and im not sure what the problem is exactly?

Could anybody recommend an idiots "checklist" of things to check/Replace?
Im quite new to riding and haven't got much experience.

The Bike has been sat for 8 weeks.

things I have done is change the spark plugs and change the battery.

any help is much appreciated.

Does it sound like it is trying to start or just the sound of the starter turning it over?
Are you getting fuel to the carbs?
Are you getting spark from your plugs?

Took out the plugs today and they are sparking good.
The batterys brand new and is working hard.
The bike isnt trying at all just the starter motor
Fuel is getting to the carbs i checked by unscrewing the draining screw

Hi Kev are the plugs wet or dry
If you getting fuel to the bowls its most likely the pilot system is blocked.
