This cycle has been sitting around in my grandma´s dusty garage for about 14 years. I recently inherited it from my late grandfather, and I absolutely love it! At first, it obviously had problems running. It would start fine (after about 30 previous attempts) and run alright for about 5 minutes, but then the right sylinder would begin to foul out.

The same thing happened for a long time, but now I fired it up again after this past winter, and it runs great! I replaced absolutely nothing in the bike to make the difference, it just works great. Maybe I just had to run all the old crud out of it.
