Hi folks,
I know some of you enjoy motorcycles, so I thought I'd share this. I had a 1980 Yamaha SR500 gifted to me after sitting for 10 years as a non-runner. Couldn't refuse such an opportunity.
I'm not familiar with Yamaha's at all so this is a learning project. Also, I've been wanting to learn more about fixing my own bikes. This will definitely help with that!
The original problem was that no spark was getting to the spark plug. Now though, it's got lots of secondary issues from sitting.
This all started about a year and a half ago, and is a big reason why I've not worked on the DIY ebike for quite a while.
