I had this same model in the late eighties . Had it bored to 1260 and a welded crank installed with 4 seperate air cleaners and a V& H pipe. I loved that bike . Very rare and nice bike.
Sounded like it was getting no spark to me . hard to tell for sure by watching a video. My guess there is something faulty though in the electrical system . Just a hunch .
TheHuester44 Look at the vacuum line @ 2:18 with a bolt stuffed into it...could be the vacuum line that opens the pet-cock valve, or? This dummy is purely guessing at this point. Look at him "pumping" the throttle, thinking it has an accelerator pump...they haven't had APs for decades now! Dummy!
I had this same machine, 84 in red & white. Mine was left outside for years before I bought it & restored it to service, the rain & cold took its toll. Buy the factory service manual....all your doing is guessing what's wrong, find out for sure. If you don't know what your doing, read up on it....then you'll KNOW.

Beast of the 80s. I would recommend just BARELY opening the throttle. That's how I used to get my cold Suzis started.
Don’t move the throttle, dude!
Stop opening the throttle while cranking. Enrichening circuit (choke) relies on high manifold vacuum to pull fuel through.
whats this fuel on prime crap , the fuel tap has 3 settings , off, on and reserve ,
bad ass bike
ok
