Sup guys, seems like I'm always having electrical problems, I hate it. Well anyways, on to the story and why I'm here asking for help. Riding to get a haircut the other day, shifted to 3rd and just lost power. Tried cycling my kill switch, maybe I hit a bump and it jumped to the off...

Chizler, Got a new battery, plugs still wouldn't spark. Technically I can ride it but you have to push me.

Fred, That flew way over my head man. I know what murphy's law is, just don't get the part you said about after i've bought the pamco.

What's up guys. I have a chopped, kickstart only, 81', and I'm pretty sure the ignition is kaput. About a month ago I was about to go for a ride but it wouldn't start. I kicked it for about 45 minutes until my battery finally died and no joy. Buddy came over, tried push starting, still nothing...

Thank you for the information, XSLeo. And yes it is a TCI ignition. I have contacted the builder for the schematic he used while wiring. And fredintoon, if you would have read the posts, you would have read that I apologized for not specifying the year, and then say what year the bike is in...

fredintoon, my bike was chopped on the west coast while I was deployed. It is kick start only and the man that built it and wired my bike cooked up a custom electronics box, and apparently had no where to put the keyed ignition so instead installed a master switch. He also had the bright idea of...

Apologies I should have specified, it's an '81. No points ignition unless I'm not picking up what you're throwing down.

Howdy guys! First off id like to say thank you to anyone that posts on here and that can give me some insight. Okay so here's the lead up to this gripe. My bike was delivered from a cross-country freight last week, I was trying to kick her over because she'd been sitting for a bit and...

And being even more specific it doesn't do it when I back my petcock off to a certain point.

And being more specific the fuel is coming out of the pilot air jets

Well it's doing the same thing again. Wouldn't start, fuel pissing from holes in back of carb, etc. taking the carbs apart while reading the carb guide. Hopefully I find a problem. :(

Took it to the shop that cleaned the carbs in the first place, told them it was fucked up. I guess something was tweaked and was making the float catch on something, couldn't really understand the tech because he was deaf. Him red-lining the bike with my Ya Mama exhaust while I was right behind...

Thanks! We'll I don't believe I have vacuum petcocks, they're aftermarket(2 feeding into one t-line,but I only open one petcock) I just did an oil change yesterday. And yes it does smell like fuel while I'm trying to kick it over.

First off, hey dudes, I'm new to the site. Did a bunch of research and read a bunch of the tech guides and still can't seem to figure out the problem with my bike. :banghead: I'm going to try to give as much information about what is going on, but bear with me I'm no motorcycle tech haha. So...
