Hugo7, after 2 years your battery will need to be replaced. A YTX7L-BS is what you need to look for. The petrol in the carb will, at least, need draining, and some fresh stuff in the tank would help. If you are unlucky the carb will need to be removed and cleaned.
Have you taken the bar end weight off? It looks as though it has been pushed into the handlebar, and may have jammed the throttle tube/twist grip. The brake lever should be easy, and quite cheap to replace. If you take it off a good parts department will be able to match it.
