Hello i recently got a basket case xs and pieced it together. I pieced the rest of it together today, had the carbs rebuilt by a local shop jetted for straight pipes and airpods. I bought another pos xs to take parts from. I tried starting it today kick only, and it would only run for about 5 seconds and then stall. It only ran on choke and sounded like it was running on one cylinder. I checked the valves they were working properly, i also timed it so it was firing correctly. i took the spark plugs out and kick the bike to make sure the coils and spark plugs weren't shot. i feel that there is an electrical problem i just can't figure it out. any advice would be appreciated thank you
