Default Kz 1000 engine froze up

HOW TO GET IT TO TURN OVER?
idea I have is to wrap a nylon strap around stator hub and pull with a come along.
also a friend of mine told me to pour white vinigar in cylinders and let set for 2 days first.
ANY IDEAS?

Are you serious??? what good is man handling a froze up engine? Busted parts

Why did it freeze up? Heat? or from sitting? More history please....

I like filling up the engine with diesel if it is a sitting issue then let that sink in. But now that diesel is sh*t in sulfur, kerosene would be my next choice.
