Change all fluids and tires and timing belts, carbs will probably need rebuilding, check and see if the radio is on OUTSIDE speakers, if it is on INSIDE than you will have to have a head set hooked up to hear it.

It may sound silly, but make sure the radio isn't set for the headsets and the mute button isn't activated.

Rip all of that plastic crap off of it and make it a naked GL. like it should be.

Come on, you are more concerned about a radio than how it rides ?! Maybe you should not be on a bike. Ride one of those mp3 players first, PLEASE.
