Rebuild kit installed. Took over half bottle of fluid to get it bled, but I think it is finally there. At least no evidence of leakage. Now I put her to bed for a couple more months while work goes forward on the Triumph T150V I picked up.

Filled the gas tank, turned the gas on ($4.40/gallon pure hi test), choke  on, second kick she started. Not  bad after a winter's nap. I'll ride her a bit tomorrow.

I've found that reverse bleeding is the only way I can get a rear master to build pressure.

Pid- will your Geneva Green RD be making an appearance at the large Deals Gap 2 Stroke Meet in May?
