So, yesterday I finally got around to putting oil in the rebuild, I try to kick it just to get the oil moved around (not to start) and I can stand on lever! I didn't have plugs in-motor has been done now for 2-3 months just sitting in frame while I try and wire it up. I have rags in every open hole to prevent condensation in motor-it finally moved after i got it down half way but is Super tight! New rings -new cam chain-new tranfer shaft gear-new 1 pc. clutch rod-all new seals-old bearings looked good-valves looked good- new valve seals-oiled cylinders when pistons went in, could it be that the cam chain tension is to much? I have it set flush according to book.when kick lever is at half I can get it to go but it seems really tight. I posted this question on the fb page as well and someone said the clutch nut is too tight? I don't see how that would be a factor when it's in neutral or does it? pretty sure i installed it correctly.
