I bought the bike mentioned above about a month ago. It is in very good condition, with only 1200 miles on it. It has been sitting for two years. I brought it home, drove it around a bit, about a mile, and noticed the left front brake was hanging up, not releasing. I parked it in the shed. Ill get to it later, is what I thought. Anyway, yesterday I tried to get it out, and the front wheels are brake locked. They just want to slide. I just ordered a manual for it, but could somebody point me in the right direction as to what to look at first. Thanks in advance, I am no expert at working on anything that small.

Welcome to QC !!! Am I reading this right ? Your 81 years young ? If so RIGHT ON !!!! :bow:Only Way to figure out why its lockin up is jack up the front end and spin the wheels and see whats going on ! you may have a problem with you caliber or master cylinder! Given its age and its been sittin for a couple of years !!
