I have rebuilt the top end.
prior to doing so I was not aware of the short coming from the left side of bike just outside the headlight bucket. i know it needs to be fixed, but my question is:
when I try to start it, while it is glowing green ignition light and red oil light, before it shorts out to black (no lights) would it start or does the short prohibit starting altogether?
i have brand new carbs
tensioner is adjusted
points are set correctly
valves are adjusted correctly
new oil
new Petcock
new air filters
choke works
new plugs
and a fully charged battery
it wants to start but …. Ahhhh ahhh No not really
and then the battery goes from 12.9
to 12.1 pretty damn quick like, it seems too fast FAST
i sure could use a helping hand
and would greatly appreciate it!
thanks.
i don’t think I missed anything. Please let me know if I did.
