james,
If everything was done to properly to put bike in storage, just follow haynes to put it back in service and everything should be ok. If not, pull plugs and put a tablespoon of oil into each cyl and turn engine over by hand to lube rings/cyl's. Check fuel/vac lines for cracks/dry rot. Check/replace battery. Check all electrical systems. Lube suspension. Check brake/clutch oil(replace if not done in last 2 years). Check tire preasure/dry rot. Check coolant(flush/replace if not done in last 2 years). If fuel was drained, fill and check carbs/system for leaks. Check carb sync. Check/lube all controls/cables. Replace fork oil if not done in last 2 years. Change engine oil/filter.
If I mist anything, it's 'cause I'm watching the NFL playoffs.
