Jazzgrrl, any chance you can get the previous owner to come over and start the bike ? You may be missing something very simple and not readily coming to mind. Just ask him/her to go through the starting procedure in an actual hands on situation. The bike did run so it should run again with the right procedure. Just a thought here. The choke(enrichener) is off when pushed forward and engaged when pulled toward you while you are on the bike. I don't think anyone mentioned that yet. Also try a wee bit off throttle while trying to start it.
