d'oh.
Anyway,
Let your motorcycle cool down.
You're going to have to clean your spark plugs, which are probably fouled because you let your motorcycle sit at idle for so long.
Charge up your battery. You do know that it runs down at idle, didn't you? There's probably not enough cranking amps left to get your motorcycle started.
Turn the engine kill switch to "Run." It's on your handlebars.

I'm having a similar problem, I went away for a week and now my bike will start (tick over) but won't rev, it just cuts out.
l've changed to air filter but still the same, so as far as your problem goes, the killer switch on the handle bars could have been switched off (I've done that too) the petrol could be switched off or spark plug may need looking at.
Also, there could be shite in the carburettor.

Turn the fuel tap on.
There is usually enough fuel in the fuel line and carb to run on idle for 5-10 mins.

Probably someone sabotaged it after you inconsiderately left it running for ten minutes. Think yourself lucky that someone didn't ride off with it.
