Long story short, neglected bike when put away, ate **** on my BMX bike earlier in spring and fractured my skull along with a TBI and nearly died, so I've been laid up for a few months.
Finally able to ride again, I go drag it out of the shed.
The thing starts without choke or a jump first crank(left battery connected) on old 9 month old gas. Felt like I had to share with you guys on this forum because it wouldn't be this reliable without many of the members here, reminded me of everything I've learned here.
Glad you've healed up. That's great knowing you bike could sit that long and fire right up. I would have thought you'd have some pilot jet issues, but apparently not.
