Honda F4 won't start.

Hi, I'm a newb to the board. I just bought an F4 yesterday with 11,000 miles an some change on it. The problem(s)... where to start? Okay, the immediate problem is; I can get the bike to start... but once I shift into first it shuts off. As a matter of fact it only starts in netural. Some help would be greatly appreciated.
