I am having a little difficulty.. i purchased this special almost 10 years ago now and just started trying to get it to run here in the past couple of weeks. so far i have gone through and rebuilt the carbs had them sync'd, replaced handle bars, headlight, airbox with XS pods from mikes. i put it together and here is my issues. when you turn the key you get the nuetral light and tailight, but no headlight at first. but if you touch two connections on the right below the seat with a screw driver the headlight will come on, and you can start the bike. i guess im trying to figure out where i should start looking to see where the fault might be. and i apologize but if you cant tell this is the first time trying to fix a motorcycle on my own. i would really like to understand how to do all the stuff and rely less on garages.
