Re: I've commited the worst sin!
For a moment there, I thought someone had part ex'd their SV for a Poofy Hardly Driveable
 Suzy comes out of mothballs at the end of the month. Shes been rolled in and out of the shed but not been near a road for over a year. She started in the summer first button...and I reckon the battery that refuses to die, will just need a charge and away she'll go to be MOTd

Re: I've commited the worst sin!
Good service, and evict the residents of the air filter.
I'd say fresh fuel with a shot of Reddex (if its a curvy). New plug always help but that being pedantic. If I said I thought the same as DB and a hardly drivable had appeared or a goldwing

Re: I've commited the worst sin!
wouldn't bother with the Redex Andrew. Just give it a good service, pump up them tyres, give it some fuel, and unstick the calipers.
But then mines had the YC treatment so it doesn't need much!
