Shes been asleep for a long while
Tank looks fine.
Compression seems good (hand guage)
Problems I know_------
Shifter is gummy difficult to cycle through gears
Clutch had a hard time disengaging
I brought what I thought was a charged battery to electric start but didn't could get a couple chugs but that's it.

Re: Came home with this (gt185)
to be honest, i reckon the gearchange on the 185 was really one of its bad points. there were just too many bits and pieces in it, even when they were new gearchanging wasn't as good as the other gt's. whoever designed it wanted a slapped ear apart from that, the gt185 was a great little bike. i've had a couple of them and loved them [apart from the gearchange]
cheers, dd.
