I don't think the warmer weather can come quick enough...
I think I make a trip to the barn everyday now anticipating the start of
the riding season...

should still turn over in the colder weather, might want to check your battery? Also what are you running for oil?

Honda label oil..
Battery is charged weekly but it just does not want to start
I even put my big deep cycle battery on as a booster and nothing yet
I don't think the choke cable is working just right so I may need to replace it..
plus it does need a tune up on the carbs..bloody thing is 25 years old..

lol, yeah a good tune up will help. Does the engine turn over? Or does it not do that?

she just cranks and cranks but just won't catch...
I'm gonna trace the choke cable to the carbs to see if that's coming on

Just got her going!!!!!!
The choke cable wasn't engaging quite enough..
so I pulled it on further manually and she finally fired up....
I had it flooded but after the smoke cleared it was all good!!
Time to get it registered and on the road again..
It's my only mode of transportation since the wife takes the van everyday.. so now I can get out again!!
