If it is turning over cleanly and there was no engine noise when you stopped it and now not firing it is unlikely to be mechanical. 
It is unlikely you have the problem Hotmetal refers to as it was not idle for long enough.
The fact it is turnng over on the starter rules out many of the switches being at fault.
Onlt a few things will allow it turn over without starting.
No Fuel, Tip over switch faulty (Emergency Stop Switch) Pick up coil faulty, CDI unit faulty and maybe faulty Speedo sensor.
The most common one is out of fuel. :eek
If there is fuel then I would suggest, lift the tank and prop it up with a piece of wood. Disconnect all the block connectors in the black shoud and check all for corrosion of the contacts in the block. The corosion is usually blue in colour, but could be black. If they are not shiny then there is some form of dirt or corrosion
Disconnect then and spray them with WD40 (don't spare it) and reconnect and disconnect them a few times. Contact cleaner will also work but it does not leave the oily film like WD40 which helps prevent corrosion.
Lets hope it is this simple.
