yesterday I finally got the bike fired up and was working on getting the Carbs tuned in. When I started everything seemed fine but about 1/2 way through I shut off the bike and it wouldn't start again. Pushing the starter button resulted in silence. Anyway I traced the issue back to the safety relay that was being powered up and not allowing the starter to function. While checking for the problem I noticed that e minute I turn the key on the stator becomes magnetized. Should it be? What would you look for when trying to trace the safety issue? If I disconnect the relay the bike fires up.
