If you had a CV carb it would've started telepathically.

yes.i am. 2 wheels instead of 3
I just got new tags for my 87 it had been parked for near a year.
HSR42 carb
Fired right up and ran like a top.
I parked it a year ago with a full tank of fuel and I shut the fuel off and ran it out of gas.
I have done this many times, I keep a battery tender on it and it always fires right up with no problems.
