Pushed my RZ out of the garage, set the tire air pressures, installed the battery, selected prim, choke on, kicked it thru 3 times, ignition on, and she started next kick, rode it round the block, reckon I'm ready.

Got to love those girlie bikes.

That is my granddaughter by the way so watch what you say :D

I just pulled out my H2 from storage. It has the same tank of gas in it from two years ago. I had to kick it about 10 times but it did light off, warm up, and idle perfect. Amazing luck I suppose. Now the bad news -- front calipers are froze and the clutch still needs replacement from two years ago. Not sure what else I will find as I wrench every nut and bolt on this thing. Ring Ding Ding

Neither am I but will be spending the next week getting a couple of the bikes ready. They have been sitting too long neglected. Kinda like guitars, the more you play them, the better they sound (run). As Neil says they cry when you leave them alone.
