What used naked bike?

Off it’s not going to be ridden for a while you are better off with fuel injection rather than carbs. And if you can use E5fuel the last time you fill it up that’s a good idea as well.
My xjr13 is on carbs and I drain the float bowls on that before I lay it up. The 1400 is on injection and is no issue.
One of the reasons I have those two bikes is they are very easy to home service, and are pretty much bullet proof. The 14 will turbo to 200bhp with no internal engine mods at all which shows how strong it is. If you do look at a 14 check the frame for corrosion round the top shock mounts , Suzuki paint wasn’t brilliant back then, and check that the rear shock preload adjustment moves freely, they can seize. Handling, it’s worth setting it up right. Loads of guidance on that on gsx1400 owners forum which is excellent.
