Saturday salvage.

Ken there’s a choke lever with a sticky cable fixed to side of frame! The wiring is home grown so leaves a lot to be desired. No kill switch, so thought I would disconnect the wire I connected to get power from battery to coils but the bike just kept running so must be being fed from alternator as well. Tim I just pulled the carbs removed all jets cleaned and put them back on. Just cleaned points had to reconnect one plug lead that had detached from plug cap.
Bryanj:
Yes it will run from alternator after starting as long as revs are high enough to provide the excitation power

Blimey Johnny, the engine whisperer. It's handy it's running as now it will be easy to get up the plank to the skip. ;D ;D

Good work, sounds quite good condition from it's running noises too. No real smoking, just condensate , and with balance, compression etc sounding absolutely normal.
