Hello, I'm new here and picking up a '74 TX500A this afternoon. The bike has under 1000 original miles but from what the PO told me, it doesn't start. He has replaced the battery, plugs, and resealed the inside of the tank (I think he said it has some rust in it). I am almost certain that the carbs are probably sticking or that the fuel lines are clogged BUT I wanted some third party advice. The last time it was ridden was in 1981, stored till just recently. Should the motor (internally) be okay after sitting for so long? Aside from cleaning/rebuilding the carbs and replacing the fuel lines, what else should I do engine wise to prep it for running? (I will be doing a lot of other maintenance outside of the motor but I familiar with those parts) I appreciate any and all the help I can get! Ryan
