Sounds like the carbs may need a good cleaning. There should be a detailed instructions if you need them in the how-to section somewhere if you do a search. Also, if the bike has been sitting for months, the gas may be stale if a fuel stabilizer wasn't used. How long has it been sitting?

Yeah, get those carbs cleaned out and put fresh fuel in the tank.
