Starting Problems

I am the proud owner of a 2002 GZ250 w/ 7500 miles. Recently, my bike has had problems starting. I turn the key, the engine attempts to start, but does not fire. I checked the oil and it was virtually empty. I have not noticed a leak at all. In fact, the bike is parked in the same place at home and at work. I have not noticed any type of leakage in my garage. Needless to say, I did an oil change and replaced the filter. Still nothing. I have not changed the spark plug yet, but I will tomorrow. Any thoughts on what I should do next? I ride this bike everyday; 30 miles round-trip Monday-Saturday. I have noticed a "gas" smell since the bike has not cranked. I simply do not know what to do next. Any suggestions that you guys could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.
