Carburators not filling with fuel

My 92 xj600 has sat for about a month now. She isnt starting.
The battery is fully charged and cranks over perfectly fine.
Ive checked for spark also and there is spark. But no fuel on the plugs.
So i thought the carbs were junked up again. When i took the carb bowls off i noticed it wasn't even wet with fuel though.
And all the jets were clean, not clogged.
I decided to take the fuel pump apart to take a look and its also clean. It actually had fuel in it. So that also tells me the petcock is working fine too. Ive tried starting it set on reserve, on, and prime.
SO why isn't the fuel being sucked into the carbs? Again the bike started just fine about a month ago, besides it idling high which just had to be adjusted.
