No doubt about it Spines, it's time that bike was running again. First of all you need a workshop manual. You will most likely need to dismantle the carburettors as it was probably left standing with fuel in it which will have evaporated long ago and clogged the jets with gum. The petrol tank will need washing out as well and the petrol taps will need servicing or replacing. You will need to drain the oil from the engine crankcase, oil tank,
gearbox and primary chaincase. It may be best to remove the oil tank, remove the oil filter and wash it out properly with kerosene.If you post the engine and frame numbers I should be able to confirm the year.
Enough to start with? OK, get on with it :lollol:
