Hasn't Run in a While

I should probably mention at this point, before anyone gets irate that I am thinking about modding such a fine original specimen, that I am now leaning towards keeping this bike original. Though my original plan was to build a cafe racer, the enduro-ness of this bike has a lot of character.

When Gary and I were discussing the mechanical condition of the bike, he mention that it ran when it was parked, but that it hadn't been run in "a few years". Here are the tabs on the back:


So, it was last last registered 25 years ago. Now, Gary mentioned that he used to take the bike camping, so perhaps he just didn't register it. But I should probably ask him. So, it hasn't run in somewhere between 3 and 25 years.
