I really had problems staring the bike 1989 T80, after 3 months not being started, I can only put it down to the quality of petrol, I have been told it does not now contain some additives and goes stale. Once I had purged the carb and fuel pipes by continual kick starting, it started and I run it for 15 minutes. Getting it ready for some of the c90 club outings this year.
I wont be leaving it so long in future.

Not sure that the steering is right, it pulls to the left, most noticeable when applying the front brake, I've got another set of front springs and dampers to try. But it's running fine, looking forward to some rideouts soon.
