I just wonder how bad it is on the engine and associated mechanics, shocks, bearings etc being idle and never worn in.

I’ve revived bikes that have sat for decades. Stuck motors, chains, brakes… I find the biggest issues tend to be electrical and rusty tanks. Clean the fuel system, change fluids, contact clean and dielectric grease connectors, and and lube cylinders before a revival.I just wonder how bad it is on the engine and associated mechanics, shocks, bearings etc being idle and never worn in.
A 10 year old bike with low mileage shouldn’t have drivetrain, suspension or brake issues related to low usage if it was stored dry indoors.
