engines are pretty simple, they require 3 things: gas, spark and compression. When an engine does not run you first need to determine why. If you have gas dripping out of the muffler then I would start by taking out the spark plug, turning off the fuel and letting the engine spin while riding the bike. you may get some gas spray form the spark plug hole. if the plug is clean, great, if not I would get a new plug, they are relatively cheap and install it and try again.
