We have bought a 1978 50cc Honda CB50J for our son to ride to college in the autumn.Its four stroke. It needs fettling after being laid up. Ive cleaned out the tank and carb plus fresh fuel. Im having ignition problems. The bike starts from cold, runs for a while then conks out after which it wont restart. Connections are good and it has a new 6v battery. kickstart of course. I can get a lovely fat spark for two or three kicks then nothing. Thoughts are coil/points and condenser. Its all a bit unfamiliar to those who prefer four wheels! Any ideas? thanks, Jim Last edited by heckflosse; Jun 22nd, 2020 at 10:30.
