Sounding to me like a kickstand switch wire or switch is loose. Or one of them other "safety" feature kill switches is loose.

Have you tested to see if it has any spark at all?

took my bike to the shop to see why it wasn't firing and the mechanic said no compression. exhaust valves must be stuck open. does the engine need to be pulled to get the head off?

Crank the engine, and feel for puffs of air at the end of the muffler...(puffs equal compression)..

If you pull the front valve cover (2 bolts),.. you can see the exhaust valves...
You can watch to see if it is working...

If it's hanging open... check the decomp lever... (check for some slack on the cable)...
If they seem to be going up and down fine... try a teaspoon of oil in the spark plug hole... (a gas washed cylinder can show zero compression)...

Remove the oil fill & shoot air into the plug hole..If it comes out the oil fill, your piston is leaking,
