The 'ol gal has been sitting in the garage unnoticed since late October with a tankful of stabilized fuel & a Battery Tender attached. There was a hint of warmth in the air this morning so I thought,"why not"? I went out & opened the petcock, pushed the choke full on, turned the key,pushed the starter button, and she fired up like we had been riding everyday. She didn't even do the "stall thing" after starting like she usually does after storage. Just started up & kept on running. We're both ready now, c'mon Spring.
