+1. if it starts or at least turns over with a car battery, it's probably time to replace the battery. The Kat is very picky about battery voltage needed to start the bike.sigpic Mulholland Hwy Ride

Starter relay90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

If your cylinders were full of fuel and it was hydro-locked, that means your crankcase is full of fuel or water too most likely. You need to change the oil if that's the case, and also find out where the fuel/water came from.
If it's fuel, you need to rebuild the carbs and petcock. If it's water, you need to figure out where it came from. If there was no liquid in the cylinders, I'd be looking under the valve cover for damaged or bent valves, loose timing chain, or valves out of adjustment as a place to start.
