Welcome Michel!

This may be a silly question but I have seen it too many times. Do you have fresh gas in the bike? And have you had a look at the plugs? Like Tim said, a good carb clean is in order, but fresh gas can always help if the stuff in your bike has been sitting a while.

Thanks for the tips. Took out the carbs today and sprayed carb cleaner in every hole I could find. Also used some copper wire to test a few holes.

Tomorrow I will try to rebuild the carbs into the bike and give it a try :S

Keep you posted!

Moved it overhere:

FYI, still doesn't start but that has probably to do with my knowledge.
I let some gas leak in the carb air intake and then it ran for a few seconds quit nicely.
So I still assume a carb issue. Posted some pics of teh carbs in above thread.

Thanks so far
