my Ace is back firing and only running on 1 cylinder

Just bought a 96 Ace 1100 with only 4700 miles on the bike. The guy I bought the bike from has let it sit for at least a year and did not drain the gas or put a stabilizer in the bike. I drained all the old gas out and put new hi test in the tank. Took the carberaters off and they looked fine. But she only starts on 1 cylinder. The 2nd one tries to come in but goes back out again. I drove her around the block and she back fired and like I said the 2 cylinder comes and then goes back out. Any suggestions?
