Gettin my life together. One bolt. At a time.
So I've been working on my bike quite a bit lately. I've changed the points, condensers, and spark plugs, set the timing, got the carbs cleaned PROPERLY, and the compression checked out. But when I give her a few (read:15) kicks, she wont get going. I can hear it putter while I'm kicking it, but it just won't catch. What am I missing here? Did I rewire the points backwards? Would improperly set carbs prevent the engine from firing? Do I need to find a goose that lays golden eggs? Included are pictures of my points plate for reference.
Bonus: after a few kicks, the kickstart gets a little resistance from the compression (I assume). Is that normal?
