So i bought a 1979 XS400 a few days ago and have been working on it but i can't seem to get it to spark. The battery is completely dead, and the points don't seem to spark. Is the kickstart reliant on the battery? Unfortunately the wiring is a mess as the last owner turned it all into a rats nest so i haven't even been able to go through all that yet. Any thoughts on what the problem might be for no spark?
Thanks,
