was it under water the last time you rode it? Water may be sitting it the exhaust and fuel lines. unscrew the screw on the bottom of the carb. and let it drain out for a minute or so,till the water is out(if there is any). Or just empty the gas tank and refuel with fresh gas. Change the spark plug,check the air filter and clean if necessary ,then try to start it. may check the oil as well,if its milky white,you have water in it and needs changes asap.
