Im having issues with starting my motor.
I bought the bike as pretty much a motor in a frame with rims.
I need to know if it's going to start before i go any further and i have had some help
from a couple guys already on here.
Since that help i have rebuilt the carbs, giving them what i think is a pretty good cleaning.
I havent checked the compression cause i dont have a gauge.
Checked the spark coming off the plugs, seems to be fine.
I only have my coils and points hooked up to a battery, thats it.
Would i need a condenser hooked up as well just to see if it's going to kick over?
or does that no matter.
I have checked the timing to the best of my ability and that all seems fine.
Any other ideas?
Im a newbie so im struggling pretty bad.
Thanks for any help.
