Simple gas flow problem

I have KZ400 and when I would try to start it up it would just dump
gas out of the carb. So, after doing some research I found out that it
was likely a blocked/dirty carb in need of cleaning. This past weekend
I took the carbs apart and gave them a good cleaning. But now I cannot
get the gas to flow into the carb. I am new to doing work on bikes and
the carb cleaning was the first time I've tried that so any help would
be great. I am thinking that because the carb, after cleaning, had no
gas in it, that there was no suction to draw new gas in. If I am right
how would I get this fixed? Thanks for any help.

You might want to disconnect the line to the carb(s),
put the petcock in prime and see what kind of flow
you're getting.
