Just got my hand on a 1999 XJ600n only 4800 miles from new. ;D
A couple of questions.
On the road feels like I am riding on ice I am thinking tyres are shot as they are the original Michelins even though the tread is quite servicable. !!!
Secondly maybe because it has been sitting for about 12 years under a cover in a garage she starts fine on choke but runs of at least one cylinder when warm.
Any ideas?

!), you need to ditch 'em as they are now some goodly way beyond the recommended age for m/cycle tyres. They'll be as hard as nails hence the crappy ride & inclination to skip about on the slightest dodgy bit of tarmac.
