hello folks.
im hoping someone here can lend some insight as to what the issue might be with my 1971 cb450-
the bike was running great, up until i decided to swap out the stock handlebars for something with lower rise.
i drilled out the new set, ran the wires through, matched up the colors, made good connections, with solder and shrink tubing, and tried to fire it up.
well, at first the bike would crank but wouldnt fire. i tracked this down to it being a mixup of the two solid black wires. one was for the kill switch, and i didnt have that connected correctly.
i got frustrated with the whole ordeal, and swapped the stock bars back on.
now the bike runs, but only on one cylinder. the left side is running great, but the right side has no spark.
the bike was running great two days ago. is it possible i fried a coil or condenser int he process of struggling with the wiring?
any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance!
