I need some advice on my bike, It won't start. I had it stored for a couple of months with fuel stabilizer in the gas. It will crank, but it doesn't even sound like it wants to start, I did put some seafoam, but nothing. Can someone give me some help as to what the problem might be. Thanks for any and all help in advance.

Is the kill switch on?

Petcock On?

Those are the first two things to check. If answer is yes then drain carbs and drain tank and add fresh gas. Then check for spark on plugs.
