Default I need help on my eiger

SO the other night while riding, i flipped my eiger once and it ended up on its handlebars. i tried to start it back up and it would not start and blew a bunch of white smoke out the exhaust while i tried starting it. i took the top of the air box off and found some gas laying in the bottom of the air intake box and some in the plastic nipple at the bottom. i soaked up all the gas and it started up. now (3 days later) after letting it sit it will still fire up, but spits and sputters only at take off, once i am up and going it is fine. no more white smoke coming out, and it will shut off if i let it idle about 50% of the time. if any one has any advice on what has happened that would be greatly appreciated, or any way i can take care of this by myself.

Change the plug. If that doesn't correct the prob drain the float bowl via the drain screw on the bottom of the bowl.

alright, so i took the air filter out and ran it wide open for about an hour up and down a long dirt road to air it out and burn all the excess gas out of ther box and it purrs like a kitten now, no problems, just like new again.
