Draining the bowl was a minor mistake. With Stabil in the gas, that is not necessary. If you really want to drain the bowl, do it in the spring before starting.
PRIme is the same as Reserve.....without the automatic shut off. It will allow the bowl to fill again without the bike running. Unless the float inside the carb is stuck open, it doens't make any difference when you put it back to RUN. You should leave it on PRIme for at least a few minutes before trying to start.
