Appreciate the replys. Getting more info than another BB I'm on. Update: took off all the spark plugs out and they actually looked good, a little darker than I'd like, but..... put it in first gear and pushed it, after spaying a little WD-40 in the spark holes, and the got the cylinders moving. Sounded good and nice even, smooth roll after I got that big @ss thing moving! Boy, I had forgotten how hard it is to get that monster back on its center stand. Tank worries me, got lots of crud in it. Will have to acid wash it, but never did a tank that big before. The rear shaft seal has leaked. I rotated the tire so that the leak would show up on a dry area. It hasn't. Does any know that if I get the bike running again will the seal be OK?? Those rear seals are a bea-itch to replace. Forks are almost non-responsive. May just need oil and re-seal kit. Also, I had the clutch in, and the pistons still moved. Clutch shot? Clutch has a lot of spring in it still.
