I was helping a friend work on his bike and it wouldn't start. spun over fine. I kicked it one time and it fired.
He had to try as he has never kicked a street bike over. :laugh: Roy

Points bike? When you use the starter you might not have enough fire for the plugs.

Don't know? 1980 model. I figured it was electronic ignition.

You might some corroded connectors along with the week battery. Yes I do agree about the week battery.
You mean weak battery? So a battery could light up the headlight well and spin the motor well and still be bad?

Guess how I learned that.....:laugh:
But check the battery first: if the batt voltage drops below about 9 - 9.5V under starter crank, it's probably hosed.
