I have an 83xs650 Heritage Special that I have been working on for a couple of months now and did a top end rebuild on it. I rebuilt the carbs, the timing is at TDC, the floats are set to specs and I have spark, but weak spark on the left side. Would that prevent the bike from starting? Spark on the right side seems good. I can't figure out why it won't start. Could it be weak coils? I havent done a Compression Test, Don't have a tester, but trying to figure out the starting Problem. The electric starter seems to drain the battery pretty quickly, even though the battery is band new. Any suggestion would be very helpfull. The Carbs aren't flooding like they were when I bought the bike and It seems to be getting plenty of fuel, (new petcock) and fuel Lines.
