Thanks Drew! I needed the extra encouragement after today for sure! I have definitely been looking around for a kick start, but I I have also ran into trouble opening that side of the case. I might end up drilling a screw out, which I really didn't want to do. But I'm just taking it one step at...

Okay, so today I put everything back on and hooked all the wires back. Late last night I fixed the points and they're getting a good connection now. The coil is getting the right reading of ohms when I test it(I THINK). So everything should be peachy, right? Wrong. The solenoid wouldn't work. So...

That didn't take long at all!

Keep up the good work! Love to see it finished!

Just so you all can live along with this love story as it goes! Definitely love at first site! Seat is one of the roughest parts, lights were all good until moving it from my aunts house yesterday to my home. My makeshift strap failed, and once I pulled off from a red light the bike rolled back...

So I found this bike on Facebook along with a Sears? bike back in my home town. I immediately went and picked it up once finding out the guy still had it. The engine was locked and the kick start spindle was broke off flush, but the C102's are electric start! ;D So the starter was my first...
