driving by a garage sale this morning i saw it. 1977 suzuki gs400. 9,700 original miles. some farmer had it and stored it in his barn for the last ten years. it doesn't run but i was told it did before it was parked. guy told me the battery was dead.
i figure a new battery, or a good charge, new plugs, fresh gas, oil change, this thing should be good to go. i'm sure the carbs should be cleaned out as well. any advice? i'll try and get some pics up.

Sweet deal. Like you said, check it all out and clean the float bowels and see their condition.

Then there was the deliverance Hicks being loud in the field. We went and crashed the fuck out of their night. It think it went something like this. Shis = "I have a little Scirroco four banger that will walk all over your shit. Lets race" Next morning shis looked dead in the car.
