Spent an afternoon in New Liskeard when we were canoeing in Temagami.
Beautiful area.

Welcome to GSR.

A suspect of "turned over then stopped" could be the clutch interlock switch.

Sounds like a good father-son project.

Yah, do post some pictures. Is required to have pictures posted before we can give any technical advice har har har we need to know if it is the black one or the maroon one har har har.

The starter switch or what ever it's called goes click when I press the starter button.

I suspect the engine is stuck... I should be able to roll it over in gear with the plugs out and I can't... hmmm not sure what's next.... don't really want to pull it all apart

Fogged the neck outta the cylinders... waited a bit and I can now turn the engine over some... Fogged the cylinders some more... I'll try with the started in a couple hours

What are you using to "fog the cylinders"? :-k

The thought of what might be in use really scares me.

Fogging oil... we use it when storing our snowmobiles etc...

Howdy. Sounds like you got a handle on it. These Bikes are known to by-pass fuel through weak carb needle and seats into the cylinders and crankcase that can cause a hydro-lock condition. Keep an eye on the oil level so you know gas has not mixed with the oil.

My wife is from Temagami, her cousin lived in Haileybury for a while. Should be back up there later this summer for a visit. Was up there for the New Liskeard ride for cancer run a few years ago. That was a lot of fun. Several thousand bikes all descending on a small town. Did not see one vintage Suzuki though!
