When I can't come up with a riff, I usually ask drummer to play something and then I just start to play along. After all, he is the metronome of the band. Usually I have some kind of beat in my head and I just build it from there.
Or maybe you just need some inspiration, just search for new music. Or download drum machine software, and play along or look up drum videos on youtube and play along. That might give you new rhythmic ideas.
