CB750 Barn find project - First Timer
hairygit:
Obviously start with checking all wires you have disturbed, and the connectors are clean and tight, especially the ones where the leads from the points join the main harness, where the rear brake light wires also join the loom. I assume the engine kill switch on the bars is set to the centre position (run)If after that you still get no spark, test for 12v + on the blue then yellow points wires, using the points plate for the 12v - lead. you should get 12v there with ignition on and kill switch in run position.

Just been doing the points gaps and timing , think I’ve got it as best as I can. Filled some fuel in a remote tank and tried to fire her up but not getting a spark. Condensers were working before strip down.
Any common things I should be checking? I’ll recheck that something crazy hasn’t happened with the points gaps tomorrow, happy with progress but I’m unsure what to look at regarding the sparks

How are you going to run the wires for the number light ? I had to run mine inside the swinging arm so not to snag anywhere.

I’ve got one I can fit but after seeing that it’s not an MOT requirement (despite the bike being MOT exempt) I haven’t fitted it yet. Granted that an MOT doesn’t cover all legal requirements if I do put I on illprobably just zip tie the cable on the inner side of the swing arm rather then drill just for ease
