Locate the loop plugs under the seat and unplug one of them. Turn on the Ignition, press the starter button, does the engine still turn over YES/NO
If NO, put the loop plug back in and unplug the second one.
If YES continue
Turn the ignition on. Check the socket for an earth, only one of the two socket connectors should have an earth with the ignition switched on the and the side stand up. Use a Meter set to the lowest resistance scale to test it, do NOT use a test lamp as you could blow the CDI.
If there is no earth on either of the connectors in the socket then you have either a faulty ignition switch, a corroded connection somewhere or a broken wire somewhere.Earth both connector in the socket with a good earth, now turn on the ignition, engine in neutral and press the starter button and see if it fires when you spin the engine. If it does not turn over pull in the clutch and try again.
Let me know how you get on
