Yeah, the fixing was the easy bit, the getting to it, took somewhat longer
Anyway, Headlight shell back in place as is most of the wiring but for some reason the front indicators don't flash and the rears just stay lit, could be the relay is stuck.
So with the ignition lit up I tried the starter and although the solenoid tripped, there was nothing else
So stripped out the starter motor and found the drive gear was stuck, attacked it with WD40, stripped the end cover and made sure the brushes were not seized, and freed off the shaft with a pair of moles
All back together and it nicely spins on the button
If the seals I've ordered come tomorrow, then its forks off
Otherwise, its carbs off as they are going to be well cruddy.
