The key to rigging up the tailight was to split the "accessory" wire coming off the switch: one to the coil and one to the light.
Got that working and added the license. Realized the horn would be a lot more work and said hell with it.
Got geared up and went for a RIDE!!
Did some 1st gear runs around the block and realized both levers were sticking because I'd over-tightened the bolts. Came into the box to fix that.
Then another big test: into 2nd gear. Shifted ok! For awhile... then seemed to "lock up" to where the pedal refused to budge.
The engine also started to stall even with the clutch fully engaged.
Box to mess with the clutch adjuster (tightened it).
Then back out for more 1st gear runs. Decided to stop while I was ahead and didn't risk any more gear changes.
- Also, oil level ok after the runs.
- Front brake was like an anchor.
- Battery down to 6.15 after the runs (forgot to time it)
- Lots of white smoke from exhaust (that doesn't happen when only idling)
