If no fuel is coming out of your drain then your carb is empty.If the bike has been sitting for awhile then your needle and seat could be stuck.Try and take a screwdriver and tap on the side of the carb bowl.Dont hit to hard though.

Also is this a 2 stroke or 4 stroke bike?

scribner,
I checked the float bowl drain and I had water in my fuel...
drained out the entire fuel system & changed the fuel filter. runs like a top ! Thanks for reminding basics first ...
