Starting problems

Hi. My zxr 400 is experiencing start up problems. Since I have owned the bike it's been perfectly fine and starts on the button normally.
I started it this afternoon with a little choke and it was fine, but after a few minutes the revs dropped off and I since then I haven't been able to start it since! At first I thought I'd just run out of fuel as it was right on the bottom but after fueling up its still not to start up. The battery is new last year but I have put it on charge anyway this evening.
What I would add it has been sat outside under cover through during all this poor weather and but last week I rode it with no problems.
I can't think it would be someone major but any help would be good before I start taking it to bits!
Cheers

Check your electrical connections haven't gone furry , new plugs and fresh re-charge on battery should do the trick.

Once you've got the battery in and it's still not doing it just check it's producing sparks - ground a plug out on the head and have a look while turning the bike over.
