    When it started when you turned the key the rev counter went around and you could hear a noise ( like a small electrical motor noise) then you could start the bike, now you turn the key rev counter goes around but no noise and bike will not start?.

    That electric whir is the fuel pump engaging.
    Sounds like an electrical fault.
    Start with the simple stuff like fuses and work your way along.

    Tilt sensor under (rear?) seat. I think it should rattle when shaken

    on my zx6r i have a servo under the seat that moves and makes a noise that sounds like a pump priming etc. its connected to a valve in the exhaust and (on my bike anyway) if it fails in the closed position then the bike will not start. mine has failed in the open thankfully, but it might be something to look at?
