Been dry stored for 2 years Won't start, no battery so we're trying with kick start. New fuel put in, not cleaned carb yet or changed spark plug yet, just getting a heads up on what i could check once I clean carb and change plug. Mechanic from a garage had a quick look and is saying the cdi or stator? How can i check these?
Could be anything from brake switches stuck in to side stand switch. Handlebar on/off switch? Apart from that it could be any connections on the ignition circuit needing cleaning. It's just a matter of working your way through all the possible problems due to it being laid up. All this assumes there was no problem before it was stored? Personally I would get a battery for it first then you can check connectors without trying to hold it all together while kickstarting. If you know how to use a multimeter that would be the way to go.
