Default 1988 CBR600F-J starting problem

Hello,
I'm new here so please forgive any mistakes!

I have just purchased the bike above. It had been standing for almost a year but ran, albeit roughly.
I drained the fuel from the tank and replaced it with fresh, but now the bike won't start at all!
It turns over but, on inspection, it was found there is no spark.
So, a couple of questions arise: does this model have a tilt switch?
Could anything else cause this problem?
(the kill switch, sidestand and ignition switches have all been checked and appear sound).
Many thanks in advance!

Hey, so just start by trouble shooting , I would start straight away get 4 new spark plugs in her if there’s no spark , check battery , also you can check the coils/ht caps to see if your actually getting the spark there? You can just write in detail exactly the steps you have gone threw and I’m sure the guys in here get there head together and your bike will be purring like a gooden
