Drain the fuel and refresh with new.

Charge the battery/get a new one.

Take the spark plugs out and clean them, while you are there put a squirt of clean oil down the bores.

Beat the rear wheels with a sledge, sounds drastic but works. If you have alloys take them off and beat the brake drums with a rubber mallet. The drums are cast iron and can break if hit with a metal hammer.

Check the air filter is clean.

Maybe someone has some other thoughts.
