I'm "taking advantage of Roxie's absence" to look into her predecessor, Suzie. Suzie is a 1989 Suzuki Intruder 750GLP. She was my starter bike, and when I got 10,000 miles on her I started looking for a step up, and that's when I got Roxie in July, 2008. Since then, Suzie hasn't been run much at all.
I started her and got her to rough idle about 6 months ago. I ran some SeaFoam through her, but she still was rough.
Today I completely took the tank off and drained it, then sloshed some Coleman's fuel around and drained that. I put it back on and put in fresh fuel. She started just about right away.
However, she wouldn't idle, and eventually coughed and gave up. Now she won't start, and will barely catch now and again.
What should I look at next? Fuel filter?

PS. I could go to IntruderAlert, which is much like VR. I just like y'all more.
