Lots of pictures would also help.
This comes up a lot (even before covid), if you store a bike for that long you should always drain the petrol from the tank and carbs (or the carbs at the very least)
On the face of it, it could be the slow circuit in the carbs is blocked (if that is the case, its a remove, strip and clean job). How long did you let the bike run for before trying to give it some throttle?
You are right but when it comes to kit you can try on first before you buy - obviously not something you can do with those. And so the fear is expensive if you dont get on with them.https://www.noisebreaker.com/£80 - gonna see if I can get a used pair on ebay
I now have three sets of these (job pays), I get them re-moulded every 5 years as the ear continues to grow and change shape, I still use all three sets dependant on what i'm doing with them. I have two sets of just in ear plugs and one set with a band attached to each plug which is really handy. Saying that, I've never lost any.
Oh, they are really good as well. I also have to have my hearing checked yearly and even riding bikes for the last 15 yrs in work, have had no change in my hearing, so they must do ok.
Lol, they are expensive, but will last for years. It's funny that some will spend £00's or £000's on kit and want the latest gear and accessories for the bikes, helmets, gloves, boots, exhausts etc, yet go all wobbly at £80 for something that will potentially save your hearing?
Strange old world?
What DB reduction do you get with those. I have read alot of white coat lab talk but no actual figures. The earsoft fx I currently use says atteunation rating SNR = 38

Hiya what did MCT do to the suspension, I need my forks looking at? Ta.
The front end has had new springs, and the valves have been fiddled with (shim stacks?) then new oil, but I have no idea what weight they have used. They did the same to the back end with a new spring/revalve. It’s really made a difference!!
Back end feels the same as my last gen 1 that had an r6 shock fitted.
