Sometimes it hard to see the forest for the trees. I would check the cranking speed of the engine. Slow cranking speed will cause weak or no spark. The electonics on the Yamaha's rarely give problems but the starters can wear out. Check the voltage at the starter when starting. If its 9.5 or better, the connections and battery is good. If not, back check the system to see where you are losing it. If you have the voltage, have the starter checked or replaced.
