Does anyone know what the problem could be, unable to get fuel in the carb fuel bowls. Bike was in storage for two years and only has 18 miles. Removed and cleaned the bowls and fuel jets. Please help I am lost.......

Check your petcock. You'll either have to disconnect the fuel hose from the carbs and a) crank the engine or b) suck on the vacuum hose to get gas to flow.

If there is no flow you'll have to either diassemble the petcock and/or check an in-line fuel filter, if equipped.
