could be anything,

can you push the bike in neutrul and check the gears engage,

as silly as it sounds - check petrol level too.

Sounds like an engine seizure or major breakage in the motor mate! Try putting the bike in 6th gear and turning the engine over by pushing/rocking it back and fore. It may help to take the spark plugs out. If you get no movement then the chances are it's locked up solid and therefore big time busted!

Hope it's not totalled mate :(
