Put it in neutral and push it up the driveway.
Are you trying to move the bike when it's running? If you shift into first gear when the kickstand is down the bike will die (even with the clutch handle pulled in).
At least it does on my Katana...I would presume that's something that has been around for a while.
If that's not it, are you letting it warm up for a while? You need to choke it up a bit and let it idle and get warm.
