Will, try your clutch inhibit switch its just under your clutch lever. You can remove it and split it. Inside there are contacts which corrode if you wash the bike alot...especially if you use a jet wash, clean the contacts regrease and put back together or You can buy new ones fairly cheaply £15.00.
I had this happen on my ZRX and ended up removing the alarm system as I thought I had checked everything else.Try it...it may just work...

When you say it wonts to start, do you mean that it cranks over? In other works is the starter working?

You say it's getting fuel so the next thing to check would be spark. I would pull the plugs. That way you can check for fouled plugs and check for spark at the same time.

Just a thought, good luck and keep us posted.
