Hello, so I bought a 2017 Yamaha fz-10 and I absolutely love the bike, the issue is after storing it for the winter( I live in northern u.s) when I went out to finally get it ready to ride for the spring it wouldn’t turn over. I did an oil change replaced the coolant out a new battery in it and still nothing. Does anyone have any tips or a direction I should start to look in?

If the gas was without stabilizer, it's possible the fuel has fouled inside of the bike. Some people are able to clear this out just by adding stabilizer or new gas. You could even try to bump start it, hoping the force of the bump start can turn the bike over and pull the new fuel in.
Also, I have purchased a new battery before that was DOA so I always mention that so people test their new battery to make sure it's ok.
Battery and fuel. Those are usually the two starting points with a bike that's been stored.
The other thing is to check to make sure no critters got in and nested or chewed up any wiring.
