RS 125 6 months standing - no Start

[Oz.]

Hello All!

So I have been away for 6 months Snowboarding in Canada, missing the bike like crazy so got home last night after some 30 plus hours of traveling and wanted to go for a quick blast on the bike.

Now I knew battery would mostly likely be dead so tried to bump start. Bump starting its just makes what I can only liken to the engine farting it doesnt fully turn over.

Changed the plug and seems to be getting a little further but still not starting. Recomendations?

Drain the carb and tank and fill with fresh petrol. Then try.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Out of curiosity the CBR is being put into storage on Thursday , would adding fuel stabliser letting it run into the carbs then brimming the tank help to prevent this? (bike will be started every week and run for a few minutes with the battery on an optimate).
