I'd first suspect the gas has leaked out of the carb float bowls--that's the simplest answer--and it will take a bit of cranking to refill them. Aside from that, do your simple diagnostics first. Check for spark (easiest thing to do), then check if fuel is entering the carbs throught the connections, and then if actually being "shot" into the throats when the butterfly is opened. Just sitting for two months probably resulted in a simple problem.

Hi,
When this has happened to me, I always check the fuel pump fuse, twice that has been the thing that was causing the problem.
