So I feel like I'm missing something really obvious but I'm having issues here.
Year: '79
Bike ran fine prior to tear down (1.5yrs ago) Both electric and kickstart worked great.
I took the whole bike apart but never opened up the engine, left it as is, but did swap the airbox for the tapered air filters.
Now my plan is to remove the electric start and go kickstart only, but I have not actually removed the starter yet.
I tore out all the wiring and started from scratch, I've got everything within the WHITE box hooked up (no ignition or kill switch, just a direct connection for now). This is the only wiring the bike has right now.

When I pull in the clutch and go to kickstart I get nothing, no resistance, to back pressure, nothing. With the clutch engage I can feel the back pressure.
What am I missing here?
