    Congrats Jacob, she is alive !!!!

    The choke comment sounds sounds like she is "hunting" , this could be because it sat for a while that the fuel in there broke down from liquid to semi solid, particularly if it was left to the elements ie cold nights and warm days. You might be lucky by running a tank of fuel through her and clearing out the gunk, else pulling the tank and air box off and giving them a clean.

    ledgend man , gave the tank a good blow out and run it for a while and it had stopped ,
    wicked , I think the last thing on my list is to figure out why my break break isn't working , seems to be half stuck on, they don't really stop you very good, at all actually , how do you bleed the breaks or should I order some new pads then bleed the breaks when there on ?

    try pushing the pistons back in. sounds like they are stuck.on my 750 they were corroded and rusty so had to buy new pistons at around 25$ each. then pull down and a clean then replace pistons. seals were re usable. best of luck.

    You need to unbolt them and clean them first ...take the pads off and clean the pistons then force them back all the way in equally with a wood clamp or similar ..... check the MC is not going to overflow.... open the bleeders to let the pressure out.
    Put everything back on and be prepared to bleed and replace all the fluid unless its fairly new and new pads if required

    Also clean the rotors with a steel soap pad while the calipers are out of the way

    cheap spanners are meant to break. always buy ones that say crv which means chrome vanadium steel or can be translated to tuff as ****.

    spray the bolts with wd-40 or similar. probably corroded in.

    for sockets use air impact sockets that mesh on the bolts flat sides and not the points as they have greater grip with no slip- and no rounding effect.

    If it starts "hunting" at idle I'd be checking the flow of water through your radiator. Last time it was a water pump for me.

    If it's left hand thread then it generally would have notchs on the points of the nut/bolt
