Looking at it from the carburettor side (or as if you were sitting on the bike),
the left cylinder is 1, and the right cylinder is 4. (The one above the
ignition is 4.)
One coil fires 1 and 4, and the other coil fires 2 and 3. If everything was
original, the rear pickup with the black/blue wires controls the spark coil
with the black wire and that goes to cylinders 1 and 4. The front pickup with
the yellow/red wires controls the spark coil with the green wire and that goes
to cylinders 2 and 3. (I call them front and rear pickups because one is
near the front of the motor and the other is near the rear of the motor, but
some call the black/blue pickup the left and the red/yellow the right
pickup, as you look at them.)
If it won't run at all, make sure the ignition rotor points toward the black/blue
pickup when pistons 1 and 4 are near top dead center.

Excellent! More photos are always welcome when you get a chance! This might be a good one for the "projects" forum.
