I have a 79 yamaha 750. I hadn't started it in 3 years so I've been tinkering with it for a couple weeks.

Finally got it started on Monday.

It ran 5 seconds, backfired and started the carbs on fire!!!

I got it extinguished, but not before attracting a crowd. They clapped.

Damage actually wasn't too bad.

Oh well, maybe next year.
