Is it manual? Tried clutch starting?

When you turn the key what noise does it make? Just a 'click click' noise?
If so then it might be out of brushes. Try hitting it while holding the key on and if it tries to kick over while your hitting it then the brushes are worn out. If not, the starter might be completely Fu*ked. Check the main supply is tight and control wire and plug is connected correctly. It may have a different issue entirely and needs to be checked properly.

Has it got a kill switch of some sort? Bit weird that it wouldn't kick over at all suddenly.

even though it has a new cas check that it is actually getting spark or atleast a strong spark.
