...have gone longer without riding my fourwheeler than you. Sad thing to bet really, but I just got done puttin her together.
Blew my carrier bearings out July 20th, 2009 (yeah, over a year ago)
Decided it was time to freshen everything up, ordered new brake pads, front wheel bearings, swingarm bearing, carrier bearings, tie rod ends, etc.
Closed on a house in early august, spent the next 6 months working on that 100%
Finally got around to putting everything in in May. One caliper was locked up, just got it in the mail today and slapped it on.
So, here it is, 13 almost 14 months without riding. New sparkplug, oil change, cleaned the air filter, added some fresh fuel, charged up the battery for 30 mins, fired right up and went for a quick little ride.
Little dirty, over a years worth of "dust" on it.
