To fix a dirt bike with no spark, you must remove the spark plug from the cylinder block, put it back in the ignition coil, and kick start the bike to check for the spark. If there is no spark, replace the plug with a new one and double-check all the electric components and repeat the process.

Q. Can you jumpstart a bike with no spark?
You can start a motorcycle without a kick start or an starter motor, by pushing it and engaging a gear, but not without a spark plug installed. It does provide the spark, but also plugs the cylinder, if you take it out the engine can not possibly compress the fuel mix.
