It lives!

A note of success: today, after finally figuring out where my electrics were going wrong, the bike came back to life!  A few kicks, a cough, sputter, and life again after being parked in a shed for 13 years!  Now it starts first kick, I'm amazed! 
Having never owned a bike, and having bought this as a non runner, this is one of the most satisfying moments I've had in a very long time. 

Thanks to everyone who has helped up to this point, I couldn't have done it alone!

Indeed it does.  Thanks for the wiring tip Bitsa!

Nice one Mr T. One of the absolute best feelings is bringing one of these old Hondas back to life after a slumber...

Great stuff, I love that feeling. Just to know it runs. After that the rest is so much more encouraging.
