Hey to all out their in VFR land. I have a friend named Doug in Calgary who is having some issues getting a 1985 VF1000F running. He has owned the bike for over 8 years (I think or maybe more) and from the sounds of it the carbs are plugged with old fuel. The VF in question is my old bike which I gave to him as a gift but he has not had the opportunity to ride it very much in the last few years so it sat stored in his garage. He used to go out and start it to let it run for a bit every few m
