Hey guys I just reacquired the tank to my Father's 1970 740. It has sat since 1988 but it has always been inside and there's been no gastank on it for about 11 years. I have the tank, and it ran when it was put away. I obviously know it isn't going to fire right up. I'm good with mechanics but I'm new to bikes. I don't know too much. Is there anything  ishould know before i go for this? Like I know I should maybe take the carbs off and ateast give 'em a squirt of WD or something. And possibly the cylinder walls? Any ideas would be great!
