Moisture in my Carburetor?

Good morning everyone,
I have been trying to start my bike for the past couple of days and have not been able to get her to turn over. I put stabolizer in the gas before covering her up for the winter. I have had the trickle charger on for the past couple of days and she still won't turn over. Sounds like she wants to. but no go. I'm "assuming" there is moisture in the carborator. Is there anything I can I do, or do I just have to wait until it thaws out and evaporates? It is supposed to get into the high 30's today, maybe 40 today, but she is still parked in the back of my garage where its pretty cold.  I would really appreciate any advise.
Thanks...

Very funny G... watch out now! Thanks, I have no mechanical skills.....there is a whole new world of things I'm learning to do. I just learned how to use an electric drill. My walls are suffering, but hey, their my walls . Its the boiler and those things that worry me......

drain the gas out of the carb. bowl ....should be a screw under the bowl ....revome it and let the gas drain out..just in case there is water in there. Reinstall the screw and get ya a can of Carb starting fluid, which comes in a spray can. Basically it's either. Give a couple of shots into the carb breather, and see if that will start it up. also like g said clean off the plugs as well.

Let us know how that works

I thought it was supposed to be nice here today, but its overcast and looks like snow again. I was going to go for a ride if I could. Too much salt and sand on the roads anyway. Still want to get her running though.
Where did our friend go? Scared away???
