My bike is dead?

I bought a piaggio 58 plate before Christmas and it started when delivered - however I've not been able to use it since then and it just won't start now. I've charged the battery thinking it was that, but stilll nothing
This is my first bike and i'm disappointed
Any ideas ????

make sure sparkplug is sparking first.
