Hi,
I wanted to express my thanks towards the forum for all the help I have received in the past. I have one quick question that I will post below. Unfortunately, my 2003 SV has been sitting in the garage for a good 2-3 months and neglected the entire time. Is it safe to start after this period of storage or is there something that should be done beforehand (e.g. change the fuel, etc). I assume it is safe to start (or try to start) right off the bat... Thanks in advance |

The battery will probably be dead unless you've charged it but other than that it should go, may run a bit rough for a minute afterwards but once it's warm it'll be fine

charge the battery and it should go.
Are you about use it as a hack or store it properly?
