I'm the original owner of a 1977 - The bike ran last about 16 years ago and then sat in my garage till my kids grew up. The last time it ran I think rust got caught in the carbs so it was running really rough. I just garaged it and it sat until I tore it apart several weeks ago. It's out of the frame and looks good cleaned and all, but the compression tells me it needs work. I sprayed some WD-40 inside the valves and you can see it bubbling on compression stroke. I put some 10-40 in the plug holes but compression remained the same, about 40-60 lbs. I just got my carb and petcock re-build kits from Mikes so I'll be doing that this weekend.
