ok someone give me a hand damn,,,

did you put stabilizer in the fuel tank before you went ? The gasoline may be "gelled up" in the lines. Where do you live, did the bike sit somewhere where it gets cold ?

I'm not an engine expert. But it seems to me that if you flush out all the fluids and replace with new you'll be in great shape. Put the battery on a tender/charger and see what condition it is in. Might have to replace it. Pull the plugs to check on them, but I wouldn't put oil in the cylinders. Replacing the tires is the safe thing to do, so go for that. Check the chain for any rust. Replace if it looks old or rusty. Check the brakes for bad rust and pitting. Try to clean the dust off of everything you can reach. If you have trouble getting it to start after all that, then a trip to the local shop might be a good idea.

no it didn't get cold thank goodness.....it was in my storage i live in the desert,nothing rusts thier either...which is cool,i looked her over when i went to pick up a gun and it was real dusty but other wise looked fine

Look under the airbox just above the valve cover for a rats nest, or other evidence of pests looking for a safe haven.

definately drain the gas and run a littel fuelinjector cleaer thru it with the first tank to clear up any stickys i the jets, i love blaster fuel injector but every one has a favorite as for oil in the cyllinder dont bother if your rotors arent rusty then your cylinders arent either, welcome home and thank you for performing your duty for god and country.

You should be fine. Like everyone said, drain the oil and gas, refill, and go. No worries... then ride to Vegas and tear it up!

I agree with this post. Its a "Die Hard" Hayabusa..!!! Im no expert either, but in my opinion do what this guy says and go have some fun with her! I think it would be fine. Oh and welcome back!!

 

[schmud0811]
