Bring Bike out of 3 years storage

[Commuter]

Hi gang,

I will be home for the first time in a long time and plan to put the bike on the road after 3 years of being in a vacuum bag for 3 years.

Any tips from the collective is appreciated. Current plan for the R1150GSA SE is:

1. Service inc Fluids
2. Battery check (been maintained out of the bike)
3. Tyres
4. Ride

Cheers in advance for any advice.

Nick.

Sounds like you have it covered there, do you remember how to ride it?

Always a debate if could ever ride. Have bikes here so just need to go slow.

Have you tried starting it yet - i'd be surprised if it doesn't go - depending on the battery
