Re: ' ..kicked me leg off for about a min, then choked it. It fired up,'
Oops. I missed that part earlier......... Sorry.
You're on the right track. Clean the fuel system (drain the tank, reverse flush the petcock while your at it, burnish the float valve seat, check the needle for wear, etc), jet it 1/2 right, and it will probably be fine.
I'll bet most 'used' bikes will have wheel, steering, suspension bearing problems. Few riders take their bikes apart the couple times a year it takes to keep all that up to snuff.
Speaking of which.....
