Well you can short over the starter and see if it starts. honestly i would remove the starter and take it to your local autozone. they will check it for free. also check the start solenoid. they have a tendency to cause the same effect.

Try and take some jumper cables and connect it to the starter.. if it spins its not that. it could also be your starter solenoid. I had the solenoid go out on my bike and thats all it did was click.

If the spark is getting right.Get the fuel system checked.Its quite possible that fuel pressure is low or fuel pump not starting up right.
