HELP! Flooded combustion chamber.

Hi;
I have a flooded combustion chamber and now it won't fire up. It's running on three cylinders. It happened when I choked the bike, started it and then turned it off after only 5 seconds of running time. I should have let it warm up but it's too late to talk about that. Is there an easy way to get this to fire up again? I don't want to keep runing it because gas will just poor into the block/oil. Any suggestions?
Thanks

The plug is definately floweled. But you might not have to replace the plug. Might as well remove them all while your in there and clean them off with some electric cleaner / brake cleaner. Make sure they're completly dry and reinstall. If you can easily do it, squirt just a little oil in the cylinder that was not firing before putting the plug back in. This will increase the compression of the cylinder in case the walls were washed down from the extra gasoline. Not a must but it will definately help. Then it should start right up. Def. save you some money right there.
