Default It is running again

I would like to say thanks to all the help I have found on this board..
I have a 1993 motor I bought to use in a non-motorcycle applacation. I have ONLY the motor, wiring harness and hand controls,, no frame or wheels or anything else,, it has not been started since about the beginning of 1994.From from what I have been told,,
However..... I am happy to report on ,, Sunday April 4, 2011,, IT RAN AGAIN !!! and now starts easily

The motor has 1248 miles on it and has not been started for around 17 years. I was kinda of excited
I tried to post a video but I do not know how!

Now all you need to do is the "right thing" --------- find a bike to put it into

Otherwise some of these Guys might make ya walk the plank into the "StreetFighter Section" or something ...... ......jk
