Gee, it even started without draining the carbs. Imagine that.
Just to repeat this again - when you lay the bike up for the winter. put some Stabil or Seafoam in with a full tank of gas, run it 5-10 min to get it through the whole system, get a battery tender or charge it up once a month, do not start it 'till spring. Do NOT drain the carbs, nothing will happen to them, you risk drying out gaskets and seals and will do more damage that way. Restart it in the spring (these bikes need the choke when cold), use up the gas in the tank and put some Seafoam or Berryman's B12 Chemtool in the gas every 3-4 tankfuls and you'll never have a problem.
