Quite a long time. The guy bought it with probably a few hundred miles on it, and only rode it to work during one summer. My guess it's been sitting a good year or two, with maybe only a few to several engine starts between then (probably not a lot.)

With the choke on, I can get it started easily under 20 seconds, it seems to take about 10 or 15 seconds to finally crank and start. I let it warm up about a minute, then turn the choke off and go.
