If you're battery is dead you can jump it from another motorcycle battery or even a car battery. If you use a car make sure the car isn't running.
Otherwise a push start works really well. start at the top of a hill or get a friend to push you. put the bike in 2nd gear and with the key on, and plenty of speed let the clutch out and it should spark off the engine.

You can't pop the clutch if the battery is completely dead on a fuel injected bike. Normal carboration? Should pop just fine in first or second.
Kick start? Maybe if your bike was built in the 1970s. Don't know of any bike over a 650 you could actually kick start, even if it had one.

The easiest and fastest way is to put it in third gear have someone push you or pull you pop the clutch it might take several tries depending on the kind of bike my Harley usually takes three times but as soon as it fires pull the clutch in or it will die

Second or third gear, maybe, not first. But, if the battery's dead, you won''t spark or start anyway. Charge it up.

Doesn't the bike have a kick-start?
If it isn't too heavy for you, you can hold in the clutch with the bike in first gear. Push it until you get moving at a decent speed, jump on and let go of the clutch.

YOU CAN GET SOME JUMPER CABLES, AND USE YOUR CAR, RIDING MOWER, ETC. WITH ANOTHER BATTERY. IF IT HAS A KICK-START, USE IT. SOME HAVE AN EXTERNAL ATTACHMENT AROUND CRANKSHAFT THAT ALLOWS YOU TO USE AN ELECTRIC 1/2" DRILL AND SPECIFIC ADAPTER TO SPIN-START IT

Take the battery off, plug it into a charger and then charge it.
If you can't do this, use the kick-starter (if you have one).

take the battery to an auto zone near you and they will test and charge it fully free of charge
