Default No spark to plug.coil or???

I new hear and need a little help. I recently was given a 1985 Suzuki DR 100 in excellent cond. Cleaned it up and am replacing some parts. Tried to fire it up and it started 5 or 6 times for about 4 seconds at a time. Now there is no spark to the plug. Where should I start to chase this?

The bike was only ridden one year in 1985 and has not run since. It was drained of fluids and run dry, carb was also drained. I cleaned the tank and the carb. Any help is appreciated.
