Have you shut off the fuel and drained the carb after every days riding?
Due to the fact crossers get little use leaving the float bowl full of fuel can cause you grief as the fuel will evaporate over a period of time leaving a nasty residue that can clog up the works it may also be worth checking if it has a float bowl filter to see if that's clogged.
that's one possibility it could be flooding for possibly the same reason.
Has it got a spark? best way to check is hold the plug and kick the bike over if you jump back about 5-6 feet then it's fine.  Any less than that you might need to swap plugs.
Ohter than that could be anything and with out seeing the bike can't really suggest anything else
