I've been pretty busy with work lately and haven't had much of a chance to do anything with the bike. Short list is down to tires and a battery, then we should be ready for a first ride!
Hey! So I just bought one as well, 1981. Took the carbs off and about to do a rebuild. Never done a rebuild at all but I’m sure I’ll figure it out. . Anyways, I have no spark as well. What exactly did you swap out on this episode?? Thank you!
So I didn't end up having to change anything out. Turns out, I unplugged the CDI box to get it and the airbox out of that way so the carbs would come out. After plugged everything back in, it fired right up thankfully. Parts for these older bikes are getting harder to find and more expensive, unfortunately..
Nope. I was missing spark because I’d unplugged the cdi box and forgot to plug it back in. Turns out the only thing the bike needed was some maintenance, tires and a chain. Oh- had to rebuild the carbs too.
