Default Scrambler 500 2x4 will not start

My scrambler has not been used for 2 monthes (fuel line was shut off). When I went to start it the engine would not start. I put fresh gas in. The battery was fully charged. I did not smell alot of gas, so did not think the engine was getting flooded. What could have happend due to the lack of use? What can I do to get it started?
