Hi, just came to finding your site by way of "troutthunter" (thanks). I have a 79 that I just picked up. It has been sitting in a leaking dirty garrage since 1980. The piston moved, actually moved freely, absolutly everything else was frozen (maybe petrified). I had to try it's an old classic & deserved a chance. It's my winter project & I love to tinker. I oiled ( frozen spark plug,brakes, carb, cables, took apart, freed &cleaned every electrical contact. The damm thing started after about 20 min & a very tired leg. I did about 10 warm ups & cooldowns, freeded the clutches, got oil running well through the engine & was finally able to remove the spark plug. The next day, I had to ride it, what a blast & the next day again. So now to take it apart & give it some justice... I will be visiting and learning from you folks, Thanks in advance Dave
