If you ground the spark plug to check for spark, watch out if there is still gas/vapors in the cylinder-it will turn into a flame thrower! Get a cheap spark tester from a auto parts store.
Another thing, did you point the arrow on the piston toward the exhaust port?
Cracked reed pedal will also prevent it from starting. The reeds don't like being ran with an exhaust leak.
After you verify your'e getting spark, you could always use a dash of starter fluid to help bump it over. If it still won't start you'll need to do a compression test.
I wish I knew someone 2-stroke savvy in the L.A. area. Know a bunch of lowrider car guys and a few bands, but no moped/scooter guys out that way to send help. I kinda regret tossing that low miles stock top end in the recycle bin now. There is Myrons Mopeds in Fullerton. Shaun is a good dude and knows his 2 strokes.
